A climate deal without phaseout language is like a fire safety plan that avoids saying “put the fire out.” #cop30

When considering existing assets, demolition should never be the default. Policy must require justification for taking a building down. From an embodied carbon perspective, keeping buildings in use is almost always the lower-carbon choice. #CircularEconomy #RetrofitFirst

Stakeholder mapping shows how complex the circular built environment really is. Aligning the value network is critical to achieving circularity. Early client & developer decisions carry the most weight and can lock in decades of carbon. architectscan.org/resource/circu… #CircularEconomy

Clinging to fossil fuels won’t deliver energy security or jobs. A planned transition to clean energy will. The North Sea’s future is renewables , not pipe dreams. #energysecurity #netzero upliftuk.org/post/the-futur…


Addressing the housing crisis without overshooting our carbon budget isn’t just a challenge — it’s an opportunity to rethink how we build, live, and grow sustainably. Looking forward to the insights from this discussion! #netzero #climateaction #sustainablehousing #Systemschange

"But what about China?" They just built the world’s biggest solar farm (the size of Chicago). Their solar capacity just passed 1 TW — the equivalent of 1,000 nuclear reactors and they pulled it off while demand kept rising. Time for everyone to respond! independent.co.uk/news/china-ame…


80% of 2050’s building stock already exists. Retrofitting and reusing what’s here is the biggest carbon saving we can make, now! Circular design is future-proof business: lower costs, reduced risks, and resilient assets. #circulareconomy #reuse #netzerocarbon #retrofitfirst


Record EV uptake in Europe is no accident—the majority of people now say they know about EVs, thanks to clear campaigns & media coverage. We need the same clarity & visibility across all low-carbon choices. #netzero #ClimateAction #EnergyTransition #EVs


The @theRSAorg & @ZeroWasteScot identified 6 high-value, cross-sector reuse opportunities from North Sea decommissioning: steel, pipelines, vessels, cables, tanks & modular units. These aren’t waste – they’re materials for a regenerative industrial future. #reuse #circularity

A circular, regenerative approach to designing the built environment recognises that business-as-usual has driven six of the nine planetary boundaries beyond safe limits - the systems we rely on, from climate and biosphere integrity to nutrient flows and land-system change.

According to the @GreenAllianceUK report The Last Drop taxpayers will cover £18.4bn in tax reliefs for North Sea decommissioning. Total costs may hit £46bn. Yet these assets are scrapped or exported, with minimal long‑term value retained. #circulareconomy #northseaoil
