In partnership with , 澳门王中王 presents the Built Environment Summit 2021.
The is a global event taking place on 28 and 29 October following the publication of the Built for the Environment report and ahead of in Glasgow, which starts on 1 November.
This event is essential for anyone working in the built environment: architects, engineers, surveyors, construction, and demolition. It is only by coming together and addressing this as a collective that we can make real change, both within our specific activities and at a national and global level.
Today 38% of global energy-related greenhouse gas emissions are attributable to the built environment. The summit is a call to action, bringing together professionals from across the international built environment sector to address the urgent need to drive changes in behaviour to reduce carbon emissions.
We cannot meet the Paris Agreement’s 1.5°C temperature rise limit above pre-industrial levels without transforming the way we plan, design, build, operate and adapt our built environment.
Over two days, speakers from across the globe, appearing both physically and virtually, will lead topical discussions, explore and share innovative practice, and encourage interdisciplinary thinking to tackle the crisis and provide inspiration to drive significant change in behaviour.
In the lead-up to COP26 the summit will demonstrate the importance of cross-industry collaboration to harness political support and embolden governments to work with the sector to decarbonise construction. The time for change is now.
