Visit to The Living Planet Centre - Home of WWF UK
Event Information
Description
The Living Planet Centre – home of WWF-UK – opened in 2013. It shows that, through the smart use of design, materials and technology, it’s possible to create a state-of-the-art building with minimal environmental impact.
From the start, WWF set out to build a building that would achieve BREEAM Outstanding status. The Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Methodology (BREEAM) scheme measures the impact and sustainability of buildings – both in construction and in use. To achieve
Outstanding, buildings must score 85% or more. The Living Planet Centre achieved 90%, making it one of the greenest buildings in the UK.
During the tour, we will have a short talk from the Library Space Head who will tell us about their resources they hold.
