The built environment - getting to net zero
This second episode looks at perhaps the most daunting, but also rewarding, challenge of the transition to net zero: decarbonising the built environment. We explore how our complex networks of buildings and infrastructure contribute to climate change, how there’s no one single solution to decarbonise it, and how instead a strategic combination of different policies and actions could catalyse a transition to a net zero built environment that delivers huge benefits to all different kinds of countries and communities.
Featuring interviews with:
- Dervilla Mitchell CBE FREng, Deputy Chair of Arup Group and Chair of the NEPC working group on Net Zero
- Professor Rebecca Lunn MBE FREng FRSE
- Dr Boksun Kim, University of Plymouth
- Sir Tim Hitchens, President of Wolfson College

What is the built environment?
Built environment is everything that is man-made in the natural world. In the ongoing Anthropocene era our environment is overwhelmed and outweighed by the material output of human activities. Our built environment faces a crisis and needs a cadre of solutionaries to reinvent a sustainable world.
Anant Fellowship is a global programme that prepares and empowers solutionaries to design, build and preserve an equitable and sustainable built environment. Since its inception in 2017, over 120 Fellows from 14 countries have trained in the programme. They have come from diverse socioeconomic backgrounds, geographies, academic disciplines and age groups with demonstrated interest and commitment towards the built environment.

What Does the Built Environment Have To Do With Climate Change?
The built environment is responsible for some 40% of carbon emissions — as the world's largest architecture and design firm, we believe climate change is the moral and business imperative of our time. Our co-CEO Andy Cohen breaks down the connection between buildings and climate change and explains how we can move the needle on this complex problem with a strategic approach to design to create a positive impact across our global communities.
As the world prepares for COP27, a momentous occasion where global collaboration in effort of climate action can shine, we as members of the real estate industry have a profound duty to continue our work towards a more just and sustainable future for all.

Greening the Built Environment | Kim Cobb | TEDxCentennialParkWomen
Kim Cobb, Ph.D., a climate scientist and professor at the Georgia Institute of Technology, and one of the first professors to teach out of a" living building", shares how we as individuals can lessen the impact of climate change, and it isn't recycling! Little changes in our work and personal lives can have a tremendous impact toward saving our planet. Kim Cobb’s research uses observations of past and present climate to advance our understanding of future climate change impacts. She received her B.A. from Yale University in 1996, and her Ph.D. in Oceanography from the Scripps Institute of Oceanography in 2002. She spent two years at Caltech in the Department of Geological and Planetary Sciences before joining the faculty at Georgia Tech in 2004.

Reaching net zero by 2050 means we need new ways of working to transform and develop our high-carbon systems of infrastructure. These must engage people from local communities, government, industry and academia in an organised transition of the whole system. Moving to a net zero economy in this way not only helps avert disaster, but also brings real benefits to those involved.
This series of five short films from the National Engineering Policy Centre explains why these new approaches are needed, what they are, and how they let us tackle such a complex and broad challenge.
The five episodes interrogate in turn: what a systems approach to net zero is, how we can apply it to transforming our infrastructure systems of energy, transport and the built environment, and finally how we bring this understanding together to implement the transition to net zero.
The goal to eliminate net emissions from human activities in less than three decades is necessarily ambitious. These videos are intended to be a guide for the people across the world who are responsible for delivering on these targets.

Kim Cobb, Ph.D., a climate scientist and professor at the Georgia Institute of Technology, and one of the first professors to teach out of a" living building", shares how we as individuals can lessen the impact of climate change, and it isn't recycling! Little changes in our work and personal lives can have a tremendous impact toward saving our planet. Kim Cobb’s research uses observations of past and present climate to advance our understanding of future climate change impacts. She received her B.A. from Yale University in 1996, and her Ph.D. in Oceanography from the Scripps Institute of Oceanography in 2002. She spent two years at Caltech in the Department of Geological and Planetary Sciences before joining the faculty at Georgia Tech in 2004.
Kim has sailed on multiple oceanographic cruises to the deep tropics and led caving expeditions to the rainforests of Borneo in support of her research. Kim has received numerous awards for her research, most notably a NSF CAREER Award in 2007, and a Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers in 2008.
She is honored to be a Lead Author for the IPCC Sixth Assessment Report. As a mother to four, Kim is a strong advocate for women in science, and champions diversity and inclusion n all that she does. She is also devoted to the clear and frequent communication of climate change to the public through speaking engagements and social media. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
