Sustainability Now is a virtual event which means there's no cost or travel involved in attending, thereby reducing the event’s carbon footprint. It's all accessible straight from your computer.
About the event
The event is an opportunity for professionals working across architecture, engineering, quantity surveying, project management and construction to discuss and collaborate on cost effective sustainability.
Conference programme
The event programme will be released soon and will focus on the following 4 areas:
* Refurbishment: This remains the single biggest challenge for construction. How to tackle the footprint of existing buildings.
* Passivhaus: Looking at this design technique as a solution to low carbon design, both for housing and for other building types (schools, offices e.t.c.).
* Data/embodied energy: Two overlapping themes that underpin sustainability in the built environment. Including an examination of embodied energy used in construction projects.
* Green entrepreneurs: Is the time of a recession a great opportunity to start a new business? We look at the people involved and how green thinking impacts on their professional lives.
