I'm Paul Kramer, and I'll be your guide through these transformative developments, including Vancouver's bold quest to chop down embodied carbon emissions by a staggering 40% come 2030. And we're not stopping at just the facts; we're taking you inside the awe-inspiring Hummingbird Hotel to experience the fusion of modern design and classic lodge comfort.
