Partners

Climate change is happening. Every industry has a part to play in reducing carbon emissions and meeting net zero by 2050. The construction industry is no exception.

Did you know that the built environment contributes around 43% of the UK’s total carbon footprint?

Without a reduction in carbon emissions from all construction companies, achieving net zero by 2050 in the UK will be very challenging. But it doesn’t have to be.
