Carbon Critical Design
We recognise that we need to act now to mitigate the effects of climate change. We continue to focus on the role planners, engineers and architects have to perform to respond to the changes, challenges and opportunities of a carbon critical economy.
Our chief executive delivered 16 keynote speeches during 2008 in relation to Carbon Critical Design. These were delivered to industry bodies such as the Building Business Leaders Forum, Construction Industry Council, Institution of Civil Engineers and Environment Industries Commission, Hong Kong Chamber of Commerce and the Middle East Economic Digest.
We continue to engage with our clients on Carbon Critical Design, resulting in exemplar projects such as the Orient Way Rail Depot where our carbon critical philosophy has helped to achieve a prestigious award from the Civil Engineering Environmental Quality Assessment and Awards Scheme (CEEQUAL) for a key transport project in East London linked to the London 2012 Games.
