Building a sustainable future

The construction industry has impacted the environment hugely, from the loss of wild habitats to green field projects, insane amounts of energy used at site during the construction phase, to count a few. In fact, the construction industry accounts for an incredible 36% of worldwide energy usage, and 40% of CO2 emissions. Mining for raw materials results in the pollution of water. The manufacture of cement currently resulted in global annual emissions of 2.8 bn tonnes of CO2; if current rates of urbanisation continue, this could rise to over 4 bn tonnes every year.
