Manufacturing, construction and building are some of the biggest hurdles to tackling climate change. The construction of steel, cement, chemicals and other products is essential to building new homes, infrastructure and medicine but presents a huge problem for carbon emissions. How can we address these problems while still creating the products and buildings we need for everyday life?
Come along to this lecture from Dr Stephen Allen and Professor Pete Walker to find out more about how research at the University of Bath is contributing to a fossil free future for construction and manufacturing.
Sign up to attend our next Minerva Lecture, Designing tomorrow’s buildings for a sustainable, fossil free future on 29 October 2024, 6-7pm at the Mission Theatre.
