Building Industry – Calls to Action
Right around the corner, 2030 is a key year for the building industry to meet net zero emission goals. Let’s leverage buildings as climate solutions and focus on strategies that prioritize optimal energy efficiency, low embodied carbon, maintainability and durability, and adaptive reuse.
Let’s Build Solutions Together
The future can’t wait for us to figure this out alone. It’s time to build solutions together to collaboratively advance climate action in the building industry. We have developed some action items for the following sectors of the building industry. Take a look and let’s work together for a greener, healthier future.
“As an industry we’re already designing and building places where millions of people will live and work in 2050 and beyond. It is critical that these places are truly fit for the future; resilient, adaptable and able to play their full part in radically reducing carbon emissions to build the Net Zero Carbon world we so urgently require.
As Cities, Regions and Built Environment Day has highlighted, this will require an unprecedented level of determination and collaboration right across the value chain – from investors and developers to builders and materials producers – but it can be done, and there is no time to waste.”
