Show Notes
As our buildings are becoming more operationally efficient, the impacts that are coming from our materials are growing proportionally. Materials make up a significant portion of the greenhouse gas emissions in our buildings. If the government and private companies are going to achieve their goals, it's a problem that needs to be solved. In this episode we're lucky to be speaking with Ann Austin, the Head of Sustainability Australia at Lendlease about:
- The unique challenges of absolute zero targets,
- How to improve material supply chains,
- And how organisations are facilitating the shifts
