We are all well aware that the climate is changing and that human activity is the primary factor in the acceleration of climate change over the past century.
We are facing significant impacts—from more frequent and severe weather, ocean warming and acidification, extended periods of drought and extreme temperatures, and other potentially disastrous effects of climate change - all of which impact on the the property and construction industry. The question is how we prepare for, recover from, and adapt to these impacts.
ProCon has brought together a panel of speakers to look at the over arching challenges that the property and construction industries face, to look at how to navigate the Carbon Code and with a particular focus on the issues of overheating and surface water flooding.
Our speakers are:
- Mark Wakeford - Chairman, National Federation of Builders
- Laura Mayhew-Manchon - Head of Sustainability, NTU
- Jason Redfearn - Managing Director, Focus Consulting
- Tony Goddard - Director, BSP Consulting
As well as presentations, we encourage delegates to take part in the Q&A session at the end. There is also the opportunity to network with the speakers and fellow members.
