Sustainability is no longer optional. In today's world, it's a responsibility we all share, and it has become an essential part of every decision-making process. In my experience, one of the most effective ways to integrate sustainability into projects is through the application of green engineering practices. Whether it's through energy-efficient designs, the use of renewable materials, or minimizing waste, these steps ensure that we not only meet project goals but also contribute to a healthier planet. The key is understanding that sustainable choices are not just good for the environment but also for long-term business growth. Let's commit to building a future where progress and sustainability go hand in hand. #GreenEngineering #Sustainability #EcoFriendly #SustainableGrowth #linkedingrowth #engineering

🟦 Low Carbon Materials at the Bloomberg Sustainable Business Summit. 🌀 The Bloomberg Live summit brought together business leaders and investors to drive conversations around innovation and best practices in sustainable business. 💬 Low Carbon Materials CEO Natasha Boulding was featured as a speaker at the event and talked to the crowd about the next generation of construction. 🏙️ Natasha shared how when LCM was founded, we chose to focus on decarbonising the built environment as it is the largest source of climate emissions after surface transport. 🪨 She detailed the need to innovate in the construction sector, particularly the materials used. ⬇️ At Low Carbon Materials, our innovative products tackle two carbon-intensive areas of the sector: 🔹 ACLA is a carbon-negative aggregate that lowers the carbon footprint of asphalt to help decarbonise UK roads. 🔹  OSTO is a carbon-negative aggregate for use in concrete applications to lower its emissions. 🔵 As a scaling climate-tech company with market-ready decarbonisation solutions, we are always on the lookout for project partners who want to implement next-generation sustainable technologies. ⏩ Get in touch today: https://lnkd.in/eNU48KQ5 #SustainableConstruction #LowCarbonMaterials #NetZero
