Redefining a circular built environment
The built environment is responsible for about 40% of global CO₂ emissions, so a transition to circularity is essential. This session brings together industry leaders to enhance transparency, increase collaboration and leverage performance systems to accelerate the shift. We will highlight the role of value chain stakeholders in implementing circular principles across the life cycle of buildings, enabling circularity from design to deconstruction. A circular built environment creates business value by reducing financial risks, and through success stories we will show how circular initiatives drive innovation and collaboration towards delivering long-term benefits for people and planet.
