Overview
The built environment contributes a significant percentage to global greenhouse gas emissions. Greenhouse gases are emitted at every stage of the construction cycle, from the manufacture of materials to eventual demolition of a building.
Applying the principles of the circular economy to the way we design buildings and infrastructure can reduce global CO2 emissions from building materials by 38%, according to the Ellen MacArthur Foundation.
Join our expert speaker, who will delve into the key principles and highlight the benefits of a circular economy to the global built environment and to your business. What are the first steps to take to kickstart transition to a circular economy? What industry standards are used to assess the sum total of all building-related emissions over a building's entire life?
