The climate emergency is the biggest challenge facing our industry. It is recognised that the built environment sector must go further, faster to ensure that new and retrofit buildings deliver net zero whole life carbon, in advance of any incoming regulation.

Steve Townsend from Associated Architects will discuss how net zero is possible through good design and informed decision making and can add value to schemes.

Steve will discuss eight practical steps to achieving net zero whole life carbon, covering subjects including energy, embodied carbon, circular design and smart technology.

The presentation will explore how buildings can become an essential part of an intelligent zero-carbon future, with a step-change in design thinking.
