London-based Grimshaw Architects released Minoro, a decarbonization toolkit and resource center for building owners and designers. Organized by project work stages, Minoro gives guidance and tracking tools to help with tasks such as commissioning an energy demand response study or establishing a decarbonization-friendly supply chain.
