How Low Can We Go?

Our new headquarters for StLukes has very, very low embodied carbon.  Nevertheless, as it approached completion, we wondered, how low can we go?

The result was a research project with Philip Oldfield and William Craft of the University of New South Wales, which resulted in a number of outputs: a report, a refereed journal article in “Sustainable Cities and Society” and a more public-facing opinion piece in The Conversation, https://theconversation.com/how-low-can-we-go-to-cut-the-carbon-that-goes-into-buildings-to-net-zero-we-need-radical-change-236326.
