CIOB Academy CPD

Green Buildings Conversation

£15.00

Description

Being carbon and resource efficient is increasingly seen as a way of not merely complying with legislation, but also with winning new business, improving efficiency, cutting costs and breeding innovation. Different countries and regions have a variety of characteristics such as distinctive climatic conditions, unique cultures and traditions, diverse building types and ages, or wide-ranging environmental, economic and social priorities – all of which shape their approach to green building. In this policy dialogue we will compare and contrast government policy, current and future practices and trends from different countries.

Speakers:

John Alker:  Director of Policy and Places for the UK Green Building Council

Elizabeth Beardsley : Senior Policy Council for the US Green Building Council

CIOB Conservation Conference

New ideas for tough times

The theme of this year's annual conference is balancing conservation needs against rising costs. It is ideal for professionals involved in historic or traditional buildings as well as homeowners who are embarking on their own project.

We have drawn together leading experts from the UK and Europe who will give delegates the inside track on how these projects were successfully delivered and how they can apply what was learned to their own decision making.
