As our net zero deadlines draw closer and with less capital available for new builds the need to do more with what we have is critical. Reimagining, reusing and refurbishing […]

Exploring the basics of embodied carbon. Embodied carbon is one of the most important factors in meeting goals for achieving net-zero. However, it is an inherently complex issue that requires innovative, […]

Green Star Buildings v1.1 is the latest evolution of the Green Star Buildings rating tool. Five years in the making, this update sharpens the focus on climate action, nature and […]

Government projects are increasingly complex, with layered contracts, varied delivery models and competing priorities. This webinar explores how to successfully embed Green Star outcomes across Design & Construct, Alliancing and […]

Electric vehicles are no longer just a transport consideration, they are a built environment issue with direct implications for emissions reduction, resilience and long-term asset performance. As uptake accelerates, sustainability […]

Join us for the official launch of Green Star Fitouts – GBCA’s new rating tool for the sustainable design and construction of fitouts. Replaced every 5–7 years, fitouts are one of […]

The living sectors are emerging as an opportunity for new models for sustainable growth that are redefining what future-ready dwellings looks like. As investor and occupant expectations rise, the sector […]

Waste is no longer just something to divert, it’s a valuable resource. As we shift from a historic focus on landfill diversion to a more sophisticated, outcomes-driven approach grounded in circular […]

Australia’s energy transition is accelerating, and buildings are playing a critical role in shaping national energy outcomes. Energy efficiency, electrification, and smart technologies are not just about making individual buildings […]

Australia’s natural systems are in peril. From land clearing and ecosystem degradation to erosion and sedimentation, by its very nature this industry is a key contributor to nature loss, but […]

Embodied carbon represents a significant proportion of whole-life building emissions, and is set to climb dramatically by 2050. Eliminating embodied carbon from the supply chain is critical, but the pathways […]

Airtightness is now a minimum expectation under Green Star Buildings, setting a new standard for improved building practices and performance outcomes. So how can you ensure success from the outset? […]

This short course will equip attendees with practical insights into how modularity and modern methods of construction (MMC) can be scaled to deliver low carbon, resource efficient and circular outcomes. […]

Refrigerants have long been considered a small part of a building’s total emissions.  But the reality is that the decision of which refrigerants system one installs, and the refrigerants they […]
