Episode 3 on Decarbonising the Built World
Manage episode 371675326 series 3487823
Today, we talk to Josephine Bromley, co-founder of Mortar IO, to find out about her systematic approach towards breaking down the highest sources of carbon emissions and act on this to decarbonise the built world step by step. In this week's interview we discuss:
\ Why carbon offset needs to be the last resort when it comes to decarbonisation
\ The difference between embodied and operational carbon
\ The upside of cement - even though as a building material it emits more CO2 globally than the entire energy consumption of India as a whole
\ Why heatpumps are a great technology, but are impossible to be installed in every house
\ How green premiums and brown discounts on buildings are becoming more relevant
