The available presentations for this event are listed below: Construction
and architecture professionals are under increasing pressure to reduce CO2 emissions through legislation and by meeting other critical
environmental and financial targets. Previous study days on climate change
and sustainability have set the scene and now SCALA and SCEME have once
again combined to provide practical guidance in the key area of reducing
CO2 emissions. This year's Study
Day was very much a nuts and bolts event with the emphasis being on real experiences and lessons
learnt. How low can you go gave the professional who is short on time and resources the opportunity for a focused and rewarding series of presentations from leading speakers giving practical guidance and examples in this field. The afternoon programme included break out sessions which allowed smaller groups of delegates to explore specific areas of interest with high levels of interaction.
