Scape wants to be net zero by 2045

The guide, produced in collaboration with McLaughlin & Harvey, Kier and Morgan Sindall, advises local authorities on how they can achieve the UK Green 好色先生TV Council鈥檚 Net Zero Public 好色先生TV Standard when delivering new build and refurb projects.

Chris Clarke, performance and improvement director at Scape, said: 鈥淲ith the built environment contributing 40% of the UK鈥檚 carbon emissions, our new guide creates the UK鈥檚 first clear route for local authorities and other parts of the public sector to pursue the greenest standards possible as part of their ongoing investment in local communities.鈥

Scape is committed to achieving net zero by 2045.
