Beyond the Envelope: Embodied Carbon and the Case for Deconstruction

Meredith Moore is the founder of Ouroboros Deconstruction, a Toronto-based company working to recover and rehome building materials before they become waste. With over 30 projects completed and a 90% landfill diversion rate, her work spans salvage audits, hands-on deconstruction, and the development of local reuse systems that keep quality materials in circulation. She also leads Ouroboros Salvage, a registered charity focused on material recovery and community engagement. An interior designer by trade, Meredith previously served as a founding director of the Healthy Materials Library at Parsons School of Design, working to make material health information more accessible across the design and construction industries.
