Taking a Look at Our Carbon Footprint

This year’s carbon footprint analysis is a departure from the previous four reporting periods, going back to 2009, and it’s no wonder given we were in the midst of a pandemic. Determining our company’s carbon emissions in 2021–when commuting to work had quickly become a practice of the past, and our offices went largely unoccupied– was challenging, to say the least.

Primera continues to promote green efforts in not only the services we provide but also in the way we conduct and maintain our business. This is the fifth analysis (on a triennial basis) conducted to determine our company’s carbon footprint. Read more about our results and findings here.

Author John Antonoglu (pictured above) has been passionate about sustainability in the AEC industry for over 25 years. Most notably, however, he spent 17 years working on the $8.2B O’Hare Modernization Program that reconfigured the airport’s outdated runways into a more modern, parallel configuration where he was involved with nearly every aspect of the design process. He was a key member of the team that developed O’Hare’s Sustainable Airport Manual which served as a model for sustainability at airports across the Country.
