You have just arrived in a Biosafety Level 4 Containment Lab. These are the most secure laboratories built by human hands, and they are where scientists study the most dangerous pathogens.
Containment is an absolute requirement and they are often in isolated locations. They are also extraordinarily intricate, complicated and expensive structures, that often require a large amount of energy, water and chemicals to function.
Designing such a building to be Net Zero is very different from making an office block more sustainable.
