The thesis
Density is one of the fastest levers we have for climate resilience — and one of the least discussed at the scale it actually happens, which is one lot at a time.
Four people who work on this professionally — public health, state energy policy, mobility design, and city planning — will each take about seven minutes, then answer a shared closing question.
The panel
Professor and Chair, Department of Environmental & Occupational Health · University of Colorado School of Public Health
On climate change as a public health threat — and why density and proximity function as protective factors.
Deputy Director · Colorado Energy Office · State of Colorado
On Colorado's new Low Energy and Carbon Code, electrification and efficiency, grid infrastructure, and where the grant funding currently sits.
Teaching Professor, Environmental Design · University of Colorado Boulder
A registered architect who founded Chocolate Spokes, a Denver studio designing and building human-powered vehicles for everyday use. On micro-mobility as the scale where infrastructure, energy use, and quality of life meet.
Senior City Planner, City and County of Denver · Lead, Unlocking Housing Choices
On the city's actual policy mechanism for enabling density — what changed, what it permits, and what it does not.
Ninety minutes
The prototype is open in small groups through the back half of the evening. Renderings and brochures are out if you want them.
