STATEMENT: Keith Waller comments on COP26 summit as it draws to a close

Commenting as COP26 draws to a close, Construction Innovation Hub Programme Director Keith Waller said:

COP26 was billed as the last, best chance to tackle the climate change crisis, and it has been a great forum to explore new ideas, innovative ways of working and see how we can come together to create a greener, more sustainable future.

However, the ambition, imagination and desire to change our climate future must now be matched with action. At the Hub, we are committed to transforming construction and the built environment to deliver a more sustainable, innovative, and productive future. The challenges we face tomorrow are clear, our job is to develop solutions to these challenges today, for the benefit of us all.”
