Ken Donald, PE, ENV SP, Senior Project Engineer and Carbon Reduction Lead, recently authored an article featured in the Boston Society of Civil Engineers Section’s (BSCES) newsletter. He shares insights on the transition to a net zero and sustainable economy—and the important role the engineering industry plays in advancing carbon reduction strategies.
