The Net Zero series: Sustainable Buildings

How will climate change shape the homes, offices and public buildings of the future, and what role can our buildings play in reaching net zero? Experts discuss the step changes we'll need in constructing, maintaining and powering our buildings, and the tech that can help us get there.
