👋 Hello! I'm Jess, and I help teams turn climate goals into actionable design strategies.

Here, I’ll be sharing:
✨ Best-in-class tools + frameworks
📚 Resources for climate-smart design
🌍 Thoughts on policy, systems, and future-proofing the built environment

Heat avoidance and passive principles need to remain as the design foundation if we have any hopes of addressing extreme heat in a successful and sustainable way.

Cooling demand could triple by 2050, yet over 1 billion people still lack adequate cooling. Passive, sustainable solutions are essential to cut emissions and expand access.

At #COP30, governments set up new architecture to drive global cooling action: https://ow.ly/RFTr50XuBpa

Renewables grow faster than any other major energy source across all #WEO25 scenarios, led by solar

And nuclear’s comeback is underway, with global capacity set to rise by at least a third by 2035

Natural gas' role in power systems is also set to grow ➡️ iea.li/4oyh2UX

Today on Volts: for years, I've wanted to do a podcast on indoor air quality, and I finally found the perfect guest! Dr. Lagoudas & I discuss indoor air pollutants, the policies and technologies that can control them, and the growing need to frame indoor air quality as a basic human right.
What's the deal with indoor air quality?
From CO2 monitors to better building codes, Dr. Georgia Lagoudas outlines how to clean up the spaces where we spend 90% of our lives.

Fossil fuels are the source material for most plastics + for the chemicals added to them. As firms lose their iron grip on energy production, indications are they're shifting to using oil + gas for plastic production, which has more than doubled since 2000 + looks set rise 40% in the next 10 years.

Truly remarkable: Poland used to be a climate laggard.

Today, wind and solar are increasingly replacing coal in the Polish electricity mix with almost 30% of all electricity generated to date this year from wind and solar.

In 2000 coal provided 95% of Polish electricity.

Today it is at 51%.
