Are Modular Buildings the Blueprint for a Carbon-Neutral Future? 🌿🌍 As we navigate the pressing need for sustainability in construction, the spotlight turns to modern methods of construction. Renowned for their efficiency and reduced environmental impact, modular construction offers a promising path towards achieving carbon neutrality. This approach not only aligns with global sustainability goals but also presents consultants and contractors with an opportunity to lead in the green revolution. 👏 Join the conversation and discover how embracing modular building techniques could be the key to a greener, more sustainable future in our latest article.

During the past few months, we at the Circular Buildings Coalition invited ten industry frontrunners—projects and initiatives—to share their ideas on creating demand and overcoming barriers.  Each blueprint project tackles a specific systemic challenge identified in our previous report "Towards a Circular Economy in the Built Environment". I had the pleasure of working with all of them, and we are proud to share their whitepapers containing feasibility studies, risk assessments, and plans for demand creation. You can find all the whitepapers here: https://lnkd.in/dkmUqhkQ. The ball is now in the court of donors and collaborators. These initiatives are ready to scale, and we are looking for additional support to make this happen. To discuss possible collaborations, please contact these organisations directly or contact [email protected] or me ([email protected]).

How can we make the construction sector more circular? Over the next few weeks, Metabolic, along with our partners, will share a series of pioneering solutions aimed at enhancing circularity in the built environment. The process of brainstorming and crafting this campaign has been incredibly enlightening, reinforcing my belief that the essence of sustainability communications transcends information sharing. It's about resonating with the hearts and minds of our stakeholders, sparking a dialogue that propels us towards meaningful change. Stay tuned to this campaign by following Metabolic, and let's engage in this vital conversation together. #circularconstruction #sustainabilitycommunicatins #sustainability

Great news! We've published the whitepaper for our project for the Circular Buildings Coalition: a blueprint for city administrations' actions to foster secondary materials markets. The whitepaper explores how London can pioneer solutions to boost reuse through planning policy, public procurement and data standards. Together with digital consultant Dsposal, we've engaged with local authorities, businesses and material reuse platforms to assess the feasibility of these solutions, and plan to implement them through a new public-private collaboration network: the London Circular Construction Coalition. 📃 Read the whitepaper here ➡️ https://lnkd.in/ewtcgA88 ♻️ Get involved in the London Circular Construction Coalition and help us implement these critical solutions and accelerate the shift towards a circular built environment ➡️ https://lnkd.in/eUR-J5AR #circulareconomy #circularconstruction #circularcities

Tayber Yastremski will be at this years' Building Decarbonization Alliance National #BuildingDecarbonization Forum: Pathways to Electrification! This event is pivotal for industry leaders, construction pros, and government officials to explore pathways to achieve #NetZero through building electrification. Let's collaborate, innovate, and lead the way to a sustainable future for Canada's building sector! #Decarbonization #SustainableBuildings #PathwaysToElectrification

The main stages of a building’s life cycle are: 👉 The creation, transport, and integration of a product into a construction (upfront or embodied carbon) 👉 The use of the building (operational carbon) 👉 Its end of life/demolition (carbon waste emissions) To learn more, download our free guide on ‘Circularity in the Construction Sector‘: https://zurl.co/0Tgd #Circularity #Construction #SustainableConstruction #NetZero
