What a brilliant video. Thanks Rachel
This is the most importance issue of our age. We must act now.
We must act considering the new technology and modern methods of construction to boost the industry as well as reduce carbon emission. Excellent and ambitious goal for industry as a whole
Environmental and Social Issues are usually overlooked in construction while maximizing economic gain. For developing countries, a move towards recognizing these issues may be seen as a way to keep developing nations undeveloped by halting ambitious projects. Most of the drivers of climate change are developed nations who have already developed. They have large dams, skycrappers, highways, mega shopping malls and other infrastructure. So for a developing nation, to them development usually means having these things too. So to be told that this contributes to climate change in a negative way seems like being told to remain undeveloped!
Rethink and Action
Net zero scam.
