Green policies may be being rolled back and watered down, but, there are local authorities going beyond requirements in their sustainability standards and showing commitment to Net Zero. 🏘️ Who are they and how are they doing it? Find out >>>

Here I am talking to @katelamble @BBCNewsnight about how to prevent overheating in homes… its time to stop designing single aspect flats and mandate shading. Deck access is just one way to do this…but more guidance from @Good_Homes coming soon!

With research suggesting last summer’s heatwave caused almost 3,500 deaths in the UK, how prepared are we for the future?

Today we publish @theCCCuk annual report on progress in reducing UK emissions.
We reflect on policy progress in a year that brought the UK’s first recorded 40C day and spiralling fossil fuel costs.
And there’s a reality check on the acceleration needed for 2030 and beyond.
🧵
Inspiring opening speeches from @unlocknetzero #Housing2023 #unlocknetzeroliveawards - I’m proud to be representing @Good_Homes and @PTEarchitects as Judge for the innovation categories! Good luck all
