IMAGINE TODAS AS PESSOAS!!!! Gente, que experiência MARAVILHOSA! Encontrar pessoas que compartilham nossos valores, crenças e ambições por um futuro melhor para o planeta 🌎 é revigorante. Dá uma nova força para seguir lutando, mesmo quando o mundo tenta nos atropelar e silenciar nossas vozes. Foram três dias de IMERSÃO em conteúdos de ponta, com palestrantes inspiradores e colegas altamente motivados. Uma honra para a Clara de 14 anos que assistiu Uma Verdade Inconveniente do Mr. Gore pela primeira vez. Para a Clara de 25, que parou de comer carne por amor aos animais e se inspirou em Sir Paul McCartney. E também para a Clara de quase 34, que muitas vezes se sente impotente diante da imensidão do desafio. Mas acreditar que é possível mudar o futuro já é o início da solução. Inspirar quem está ao nosso lado multiplica os resultados. Agir localmente gera impacto global. 🌍 Obrigada, @theclimatereality e @algore, pela oportunidade que quero honrar com todo afinco. Agora sou uma Liderança Climática — e ninguém vai me segurar! 💚 Bora lá @climaterealitybrasil ⸻ 🌱 English Version IMAGINE ALL THE PEOPLE! What an INCREDIBLE experience! Meeting people who share the same values, beliefs, and ambitions for a better future for our planet 🌎 is truly energizing. It reignites our strength to keep fighting, even when the world tries to overwhelm us and silence our voices. I spent three full days IMMERSED in cutting-edge content, with inspiring speakers and highly motivated colleagues. It was an honor for 14-year-old Clara, who watched An Inconvenient Truth by Mr. Gore for the first time. For 25-year-old Clara, who stopped eating meat out of love for animals and was inspired by Sir Paul McCartney. And for almost-34 Clara, who often feels powerless in the face of such a massive challenge. But believing that change is possible is already the beginning of the solution. Motivating those around us amplifies the results. Acting locally has a global impact. 🌍 Thank you, @theclimatereality and @algore, for this opportunity that I intend to embrace fully. From now on, I am a Climate Leader — and nothing will hold me back! 💚 Let’s go @climaterealitybrasil

Sustainable construction is entering a stricter commercial and accountability phase. SDCL Efficiency’s planned wind-down shows that retrofit and energy-efficient buildings are vulnerable when investor confidence weakens, even though they remain central to net zero carbon buildings and to decarbonising the built environment. The message is blunt: environmental sustainability in construction must prove life cycle cost, building lifecycle performance and durable returns, rather than rely on green construction narratives. Developers and asset owners face greater pressure to embed sustainable building design, low carbon design and lifecycle assessment across existing estates and new low carbon building projects.

The Considerate Constructors’ Scheme has revised its checklist and scoring model for the UK and Ireland, pushing procurement and site management towards measurable sustainable building practices. Stronger scrutiny should sharpen whole life carbon assessment, embodied carbon control and the management of embodied carbon in materials, low carbon construction materials and resource efficiency in construction. Homes England’s debt facility with Richborough confirms that housing delivery still dominates public policy. Faster build-out without equal focus on whole life carbon, circular economy in construction, life cycle thinking in construction and the carbon footprint of construction risks locking in avoidable emissions. For teams aligning projects with BREEAM and BREEAM v7, the direction is clear: eco-design for buildings, sustainable material specification, environmental product declarations (EPDs) and net zero whole life carbon are becoming core tests of sustainable design.
