At Content With Purpose, we’re thrilled to showcase innovative leaders who are shaping the future of sustainable construction in The Nature of Building: Biodiversity & the Built Environment. Morgan Sindall Construction is paving the way with its visionary "Regenerative Twin" approach, combining carbon reduction and biodiversity enhancement across the built environment. Leveraging advanced tools like Carbonica, they deliver projects that cut whole-life carbon emissions by up to 84%, proving that low-carbon, nature-rich solutions can align with economic viability and social value. By working closely with clients from the outset, Morgan Sindall not only meets biodiversity net gain targets but also advances the UK’s sustainability goals, creating developments that stand for environmental resilience and long-term impact.

The Clackamas County Courthouse project is more than a building—it’s a step forward in sustainable public infrastructure. By optimizing materials and reducing embodied carbon by 23%, PCL and DCI Engineers saved 1,360 metric tons of CO2e—equivalent to taking 325 cars off the road for a year. This LEED Gold-targeted courthouse is designed for the future, balancing functionality, efficiency, and environmental responsibility.

G4S Secure Solutions UK Launch the Innovative 1 in 100 Initiative - G4S Secure Solutions (UK) has been working collaboratively with Play It Green | B Corp™ as part of the Climate Positive Workforce programme. This demonstrates our dedication to reducing our carbon footprint and promoting sustainability and positive social impact within security operations. The introduction of the "1 in 100" initiative marks a significant step forward in our joint efforts. The "1 in 100" initiative is a simple yet powerful concept adopted by the Property Management division of G4S Secure Solutions (UK). For every 100 miles of unavoidable travel using vehicles running on fossil fuels, G4S will plant one tree. This initiative directly addresses some of the carbon emissions from necessary travel. Consequently, it transforms an environmental challenge into an opportunity for positive action. A Diverse Planting Approach To maximise the environmental and social impact, every three trees planted under this initiative will include: > One Fruit Tree in Senegal: Supporting local communities through agroforestry. This enhances food security and promotes sustainable agriculture. > One Mangrove in Kenya: Restoring vital coastal ecosystems. Mangroves protect shorelines from erosion and provide habitats for diverse marine life. One Sea Kelp off the Sunshine Coast of Canada: Contributing to marine biodiversity. Sea kelp acts as significant carbon sinks. > By diversifying the types of trees and locations, we address environmental challenges across different ecosystems. Thus, we amplify the positive effects of the initiative The "1 in 100" initiative was developed through close collaboration between Heike Butler, Head of Sustainability and Social Value at G4S, and Play it Green CEO, Richard Dickson. Their shared vision and commitment to sustainability have been instrumental. Together, they created a programme that rebalances carbon emissions and generates substantial social and environmental benefits. https://lnkd.in/ecNHyK7M

#PRF partners with industry leaders to establish a biodiversity standard for construction 🌱   We’re excited to share that we are collaborating with AP Pension and PensionDanmark to develop a shared industry standard for measuring and reducing the construction sector’s biodiversity impact across the entire value chain. Supported by Realdania and leading advisors such as Sweco, Oiko, Aaen Engineering, and Upstream Partners, the project aims to drive collective action and set new benchmarks for sustainability in construction.   At PRF, we’re proud to contribute to this initiative that will help establish a common "language" for addressing biodiversity in the construction sector.   Learn more about the project 👇   #Biodiversity #Sustainability #Construction #Innovation #Collaboration #GreenBuilding  

Sustainability is no longer a nice to have, it’s now fundamentally changing the entire infrastructure development landscape. So in this new campaign for Aurecon we featured their people as we ask - what does it take to deliver sustainable infrastructure? In the first few weeks it's generating completed view rates of 3 times the LinkedIn benchmark. #WhatDoesItTake # #BrandsWithPurpose #SustainableInfrastructure #WorkThatWorks #LinkedInOfficialContentPartner

"To me, sustainability means balancing economic, social, and environmental value and understanding their interrelation. More than half of all economic activity is highly dependent on nature and its services. We must become more conscious of our actions and their impacts." — Christina Haupt Toft Christina Haupt Toft is the founder of Circle Consulting, a consultancy that integrates construction and biodiversity to benefit businesses and society. With 15 years of experience in finance and construction, Christina has focused the last five on sustainability and biodiversity in the built environment. Among her achievements is the development of a national method for city nature mapping in extensive collaboration within the industry, including ConTech Lab - en del af Molio.
 Addressing sustainability challenges in the built environment, Christina highlights the complexity and the novelty of incorporating nature-focused approaches in traditional economic sectors. She emphasises the pivotal role of financial institutions in driving sustainability by incentivising nature-positive assets and discusses the need for innovative construction materials and methods in response to raw material scarcity. 👉 Read the full article on our Journal: https://lnkd.in/ep_6ikNN
