For the last decade, the Australian property and construction industry has been committed to reducing carbon emissions, delivering cost savings, boosting health and productivity, and creating places that are good for the environment and people too.
We have the technology, the skills and the knowledge to halve emissions from buildings, while also boosting the productivity, health and wellbeing of the people who live, learn, work and play in them. It’s time to take action.
Romilly Madew, of the Green Buildings Council of Australia, welcomes the government's Smart Cities Plan, but calls for greater emphasis on sustainability.
"While other industries continue to debate the business case for sustainability, the property and construction industry in Australia has shown real leadership," said Madew.
