Climate Literacy: The Missing Link in the Built Environment’s Sustainability Efforts

On a recent episode of The Responsible Edge, Mina Hasman, Sustainability Director at Skidmore, Owings & Merrill (SOM), shared her insights on why climate literacy is the most overlooked but crucial element in the built environment’s sustainability transition. With a career spanning architecture, environmental engineering, and policy advocacy, Mina has worked at the forefront of embedding science-based sustainability frameworks into the industry. However, despite the growing push for net zero and ESG commitments, she warns that many professionals still lack the foundational knowledge needed to implement real change. “Many people still don’t know what net zero carbon truly means—what it entails, how to measure it, and how to verify claims. That’s where problems arise.” In this conversation, Mina highlights the urgent need for climate literacy, the role of governance in preventing greenwashing, and the steps the industry must take to move beyond fragmented sustainability initiatives.
