As we all take our different paths towards net zero, there are both challenges and opportunities that lie ahead. We’re being inundated with facts, figures and statistics, but the true value lies in collaboration and learning from each other.
We’re all on slightly different journeys, but we all have the same goal: meet the Government’s net zero targets by 2050 (at the latest!).
At Willmott Dixon, we’re on a mission to #SimplifySustainability in the construction industry. We know that not everyone needs to be a sustainability expert, but that we can all learn from experts, share our experiences and feel empowered to make decisions.
We have lots of content coming soon helping to simplify sustainability. If you want to make sure you don't miss anything, simply sign up by clicking the link below.
Ironically, there is a lot of sustainability "jargon" in the industry. So the first thing we're doing is taking it back to basics and sharing what these terms really mean for customers. We'll be releasing a few definitions every week on our social media channels and on the page below. You can watch our people explaining the terms or simply download a PDF with them all on here.
If there is a term you think is missing, let us know here.
