In part 3 of episode 2 with Ian Boyd from Arc Consulting, we're discussing the Built Environment, carbon and sustainability.

How do we manage the process of building properties to produce less carbon, and provide better spaces?

Changes to the design and build process can help firms achieve a lower carbon impact, and achieve many of the sustainability metrics they are required to focus on more easily.

Ian Boyd has worked in environmental conservation, ecological management and public engagement roles for over 30 years. He founded the Island 2000 Trust, the conservation charity Gift to Nature and inaugurated the Newport Rivers Group and Island Rivers.

He has worked for national and local charities, public sector and in private practice at locations across England and Wales and has managed coastal and freshwater reserves in Suffolk and Kent, upland rivers in Cumbria and lowland rivers on the Isle of Wight.

Ian is extremely passionate about what he does and has some great insights across the three parts of this episode.

In part 3, looking at carbon and sustainability in the Built Environment bring together our first two parts and discuss:
