How can the construction world contribute to achieving the targets set in the European Green Deal?

Over time, the construction world has shown a limited ability to change the way it works. Sustainability issues are no exception, however, there is a growing awareness of this in recent years.

The Green Deal's ultimate goal is to transform the European economy into a circular model. To do this it relies on three elements: neutrality in greenhouse gas generation by 2050, decoupling of economic growth from resource use, and preservation of all people and places.

The construction world plays a key role in this regard. A good portion of greenhouse gas emissions and the environmental impact of our lifestyles depends precisely on buildings. This is precisely why this sector plays a key function in pursuing the goals of the Green Deal.
