Abstract

The Fall 2021 ENGR333 project focused on the sustainable housing and featured a partnership with Habitat for Humanity of Kent County.

I asked the students “What is the expected carbon emissions savings of the [Habitat for Humanity] carbon footprint build house?” And “If the carbon footprint build house is not carbon-neutral, you must answer a second question: How can carbon emissions be reduced by a further 20%?”

Calvin’s PR office followed the students’ work throughout the semester. At the end of the semester, the project was featured on Calvin’s News and Stories site with an article by Matt Kucinski (Calvin PR). In addition, a short promotional video highlighted student voices. Chimes, the Calvin University student newspaper, also wrote a story about the project.

Customer

The customer for this project was Mark Ogland-Hand, faith relations director at Habitat for Humanity of Kent County.
