Hopefully this one works...Council House 1 was too complex and performed below industry standards with a NABERS base building 3 star rating estimated in 2012 (lnkd.in/gFHKh8b). At the same time, it would be good to see the Council continue to pus…lnkd.in/gcNjVQN


Our metro train driver just announced that the time on the toll road to get to the city today along the same route (from Alamein so not one of the longer ones) would take 1hr 47mins. Train takes 30 mins. Trains for the win.


An 80% impact is the magnitude of change that needs to happen across all sectors, and the plastic bags initiative shows we can do it with consumers and businesses working together (without the government). Now let's take on the rest of it... lnkd.in/gvZybXM


Absolutely amazing #passivhaus multi-results social housing competition entry in Spain with beautiful visualisations of the calcs demonstrating both the strategy and the rigour of the design that is required to achieve this best practice standard. lnkd.in/gBJWEyV


For anyone feeling guilty about their carbon footprint due to their protesting kids or otherwise, I recommend buying 100% Green Power at home, it's one of the easiest ways to make a significant difference and enables you to bypass all the politics. Why wa…lnkd.in/g57gs4n

Geo-engineering was always talked about as the last resort, I wonder if we've already reached the tipping point where these solutions are required... lnkd.in/gjiQFGj

A great perspective and example of leadership from the French, recognising the global impacts of importing products. A lesson for all of us and a reminder of what our governments could be. lnkd.in/gnaccyv


The upcoming changes to the NCC in 2019 are significant in both their targets and how it is calculated which will be a step change for our buildings and our work processes respectively. The key changes include combined window and wall assessment that wi…lnkd.in/gnCrtrv


Excited to be joining my first board meeting with the Australian Passive House Association today and looking forward to advancing the standard in the region over the next few years. lnkd.in/gitVERy


Meanwhile in Sydney... they've completed the first passivhaus apartment block in Australia! Get along if you can as it's hard to access resi projects once they're occupied. Great website too, the illustrations explaining passivhaus on the facts page are…lnkd.in/gF73hZC


More vegan propaganda from those lefty lunatics that run the BBC. Spoiler alert: "Not only was global mortality reduced by 6-10% but the savings in healthcare and lost work productivity came to $28 trillion and $30 trillion a year…lnkd.in/g3XK-ez lnkd.in/gFcTWTS


Good to see a but of publicity and momentum building around recycling week, where most of us know recycling alone isn't good enough, it does make us think about waste and consider opportunities to reduce and reuse in our lives and…lnkd.in/gd58UQX lnkd.in/gBEyvVQ


Amazing speech by a 15 year old in Finland at a climate march. For me, the line "all we have to do is wake up and change" is exactly right. We are making these decisions everyday and we need to challenge every element of our lif…lnkd.in/gGAHxWb lnkd.in/gTJKFUg
