210: Rebuilding Better: Lessons from Christchurch with Lloyd Alter
Description
In this episode of the Passive House Podcast, Lloyd Alter shares stories from his recent trip to New Zealand. We dive into the "missed opportunities" he saw in Christchurch's post-earthquake rebuild and the broader evolution of Passive House standards. Lloyd discusses the impact of thoughtful building design, sufficiency in architecture, and what can be learned from New Zealand’s unique challenges in sustainable housing.
