CIOB Nature and the Built Environment

“The traditional relationship between the construction industry and the natural world has often been one of extraction and opposition, with nature sometimes seen as a source of materials or a barrier to development. However, driven by the climate and ecological crisis, shifting regulations, and a deeper understanding of ecological resilience, this relationship is undergoing a profound and necessary transformation.

This webinar explores how the construction industry will be reshaped, as it recognises the need to move away from extractive practices towards a more regenerative model. We will discuss emerging trends and critical innovations that are redefining the relationship between nature and the built environment, from climate resilience and nature-based solutions to biodiversity net gain and nature positive.”
