Net-zero carbon agenda
Students are encouraged to challenge the brief and/or solution during the conversation with the team. Do they embed
key climate emergency drivers? Examples might include active consideration of carbon impacts during design,
choices of lower carbon materials, removal of waste from construction, upgrades to an infrastructure system to remove
everyday carbon emissions, conceive of solutions to re-use, remodel, re-cycle existing infrastruure appropriately.
Evidence of this task can take the form of a simple statement/consideration or anything above this.
