The Construction Leadership Council (CLC) has announced its ‘Building a Greener Britain’ programme to help deliver a zero-carbon built environment at the COP26.
Partnering up with ITN Productions Industry News, the CLC’s programme explores the cutting-edge sustainable methods the sector is adopting presented through the lens of its Construct Zero programme. This is shown through a series of interviews with industry experts and news items looking at how the construction sector is going green, with Clare Nasir anchoring the programme.
The full video will be premiered at 9:30am on 11 November on the COP26 YouTube channel.
Andy Mitchell CBE, co-chair of the CLC, said: “The CLC brings together representatives from across the construction sector, from sole traders to major contractors, and in this video, which will launch at COP26, we’re addressing the biggest challenge which is climate change.
“Construct Zero sets out an action plan and headline metrics against which the construction industry can collectively measure and monitor its progress to net zero on a quarterly basis. We are also showcasing business champions in our sector who are doing great work in reducing carbon emissions.”
Nina Harrison-Bell, head of ITN Productions Industry News, added: “We are delighted to launch our programme with the CLC, which explores the innovative range of new methods and initiatives the construction industry is introducing and developing as moves towards a net zero future. We hope the content will be used to support the CLC’s Construct Zero programme and show the immediate need for action.”
