The Association for Consultancy and Engineering (ACE) is one of 40 signatories of the Construction Industry Council (CIC)'s new Carbon Zero: the professional institutions’ climate action plan,
CIC’s Deputy Chair and Chair of the Climate Change Panel Professor, Stephen Hodder MBE is also addressing COP26 today discussing the Action Plan as part of the Construction Leadership Council’s presentation.
Signatories to the CIC Carbon Zero: the professional institutions' climate action plan have been working on implementation proposals for the plan to have them ready for COP26, with steps, responsible departments and timelines for each action.
The Action Plan identifies 10 areas of work, with 72 deliverables which embrace all interests within CIC, and were developed in close collaboration with a diverse range of institutions, organisations and individuals.
Stephen Hodder MBE said: “I am delighted that COP26 will hear about the unprecedented institutional alliance that has resulted in our Action Plan. It is a plan for real action, not hollow rhetoric, and one that will see an up-skilling of built environment professionals and their contribution to the decarbonisation of the wider construction industry. I would like to thank all contributors for the hard work that has brought us to this significant moment, not least Simon Foxell of the Edge think tank for the plan’s inception.”
