Ambition into Action
The UK’s biggest festival for a net zero carbon built environment will play host to transformative discussion and knowledge exchange on accelerating our journey to a net zero carbon.
The journey to zero carbon calls for a fundamental shift in the way we approach our built environment - a shift that’s imperative for mitigating and adapting to the impending challenges of the climate emergency.
The urgency of the climate crisis shines a spotlight on the power of the built environment to become a force for good. Talking about cutting emissions, doesn’t cut emissions. We need to turn ambition into action now.
We already have the solutions, the knowledge and the ambition to transform our built environment into a powerhouse for regeneration and sustainability.
Now let’s make this vision a reality.
