A Science-Based Determination: The Fastest Path to Decarbonizing Buildings Is a Digital Technology-First Approach

3BL Media

Although every building is unique, retrofitting an existing building versus building a new design can cut lifetime carbon emissions in half. To meet emissions targets, we must focus on measures with a low carbon footprint, a quick return on upfront emissions, and a low operational profile. So, where do you begin?

Evolving Water Management to Strengthen Communities

3BL Media

Digital tools, such as Floodly , are important in this process. However, in the necessary drive towards a net-zero-carbon future, the present-day impacts of both insufficient and excess water—droughts and floods more frequent and severe due to climate change—on communities are at risk of being side-lined.

Comment: Carbon net zero – we’re halfway there

Envirotec Magazine

Understanding the whole picture of an organisation’s emissions is the first step – for example, tackling the problem through a combination of digital simulation tools and physical audits, creating a digital twin for a new low-carbon decentralised energy system. It is all about turning data into results.
