Can buildings regenerate our planet?
The building industry is one of the greatest enemies of the environment. At the Build for Life Conference 2021 you can join a conversation about how people and planet can improve a relationship we can’t afford to break.??
Environment friendly design is about reducing negative impacts and striving to create lasting positive effects on our environment. Our buildings, and the way they frame our lifestyles, should therefore be designed, delivered, and maintained in respect for planetary boundaries. In return nature can give great qualities to architecture. Join our moderators, architects and journalists Ane Cortzen and Marcus Fairs, environmentalists, developers and architects in a conversation about architecture, natural resources and regenerative mindsets.??
