Building a Low Carbon Future

Description

We invite you to attend this review of how the building sector can tackle the issue of embodied carbon and help build a low carbon future.

The presentation offers an introduction to building sector emissions, both operational and embodied carbon and best practices for low embodied carbon design.

Learning objectives:

Climate change

• What are the impacts of climate change and what targets are in place to limit its damage?
• What is the role of the building sector?

Embodied carbon

• The growing importance of embodied carbon over a building’s lifecycle.
• Design considerations for reducing whole-of-life embodied carbon - reduction offsetting.
• Moving towards low carbon and carbon neutral materials.
• Net-zero roadmaps to achieve net-zero by 2050.

We welcome the opportunity to present this informative and interactive session with your team.
