The year 2030 is just eight years away and the race to net zero has begun. Over 1200 Architects have already pledged their support for the UK Architects Declare Climate and Biodiversity Emergency. As such, the architectural industry is changing and pressure is mounting on architects, urban designers and planners to do more to achieve ambitious net zero targets. Now is the time to become part of the solution.
