During #NetZeroWeek, it’s fitting that our chief sustainability officer Julia Barrett was declared Construction Leader of the Year at last night’s Construction News awards. This is recognition for how Julia has driven our aim is to be zero-carbon in our own operations without offsetting by 2030. The built environment is responsible for about 42% of annual global CO2 emissions, so finding a solution is non-negotiable. That's why yesterday’s award matters. It’s a reflection on the progress construction is making to become a greener industry that offers tangible solutions for the net zero ambitions of customers and supply chain partners alike. In awarding the title, judges said Julia’s ‘commitment to driving change through collaboration, strategy and leadership really shines through’. Collaboration is the only way we’ll deliver a step-change in reducing construction’s annual global CO2 emissions. We look forward to working with customers, peers and supply chain partners in making that aim a reality. #NetZero #Decarbonisation #biodiversity #nature #BNG #SustainableDevelopment #ClimateAction #SustainableConstruction #ClimateCrisis #CarbonReduction

The journey to a sustainable future in construction ✈. Currently responsible for over 40% of global carbon emissions, it’s no secret that cleaning up the construction and operation of our buildings will be vital if we want to successfully turn the tide on climate change. One way to do this would be to extend the life of materials and components used in buildings - thereby dramatically reducing the near constant demand for raw materials and the subsequent carbon-intensive manufacturing. Our Sustainability Operations Director, Andrew Mitchell, shares his thoughts on how materials data can supercharge the circular process.
