Climate Reality 8 months ago

✨ Esse fim de semana tive o privilégio de participar do 60º Climate Reality Project Training (@climaterealitybrasil e @climatereality ) no Rio de Janeiro, iniciativa fundada por @algore , ex-vice-presidente dos EUA e Prêmio Nobel da Paz. 🌍 Hoje, a rede integra mais de 100 mil líderes em 174 países, trabalhando juntos por justiça climática e uma transição justa. Foram três dias intensos de palestras, diálogos e formações sobre clima, COP30, justiça climática e fortalecimento de lideranças locais, regionais e internacionais. 🍃 Tivemos falas inspiradoras da ministra Marina Silva (@marinasilvaoficial ), do presidente da COP30 André Corrêa do Lago (@andrecorreadolago ), a deputada federal Célia Xakriabá (@celia.xakriaba ), além de especialistas e lideranças que enriqueceram cada momento. Também pudemos interagir nas feiras com organizações incríveis como Amazônia de Pé (@amazoniadepe ), Talanoa (@institutotalanoa ), Palmares Laboratório-Ação (@palmareslab ), entre tantas outras que estão construindo caminhos de mobilização real. ✊🌱 Falar sobre mudanças climáticas com pesquisadores, lideranças indígenas e representantes da sociedade civil foi o gás que eu precisava para reforçar ainda mais meu compromisso com essa pauta urgente. 💚 Tive a alegria de representar a @empoderaclima ao lado de colegas incríveis (amizades que quero levar para além do ativismo ✨) e também levar um pouco do @wiki_ri para a rede de internacionalistas engajados nessa luta. 🌎🤝 Sigo por aqui trazendo de forma educativa e acessível os debates políticos e ambientais que transformam nosso presente e moldam o futuro. Porque a causa é urgente e só juntos conseguimos avançar. 🌱🔥 #ClimateReality #JustiçaClimática #COP30 #EmpoderaClima #wikiri #observatoriodoclima #relacoesinternacionais #ativismoambiental

Homes England’s backing of a multi-million-pound Richborough debt facility shows that sustainable construction is entering a more exacting phase in which finance, planning and build-out matter as much as innovation. Public support is becoming central to decarbonising the built environment because sustainable building design, sustainable design and eco-design for buildings cannot scale without patient capital and a dependable pipeline. Schemes that advance will need credible whole life carbon assessment, lifecycle assessment and life cycle cost evidence, with far closer scrutiny of whole life carbon, embodied carbon, embodied carbon in materials and the carbon footprint of construction to support net zero carbon buildings and net zero whole life carbon targets.

SDCL Efficiency’s planned wind-down is a sharp warning that low carbon building and energy-efficient buildings are not automatically a bankable proposition, even where environmental sustainability in construction is compelling. The Considerate Constructors’ Scheme’s revised checklist and scoring model in the UK and Ireland raises the bar for measurable responsible construction, strengthening demand for BREEAM, BREEAM v7 and stronger building lifecycle performance. Developers and contractors that can prove circular economy and circular economy in construction principles, life cycle thinking in construction, resource efficiency in construction, sustainable material specification, environmental product declarations (EPDs), low embodied carbon materials and end-of-life reuse in construction will be better placed to deliver green construction, eco-friendly construction and sustainable building practices with commercial durability.
