In the latest issue of Building Services Engineering Franziska Mohr, Policy and Communication Adviser, European Federation of Engineering Consultancy Association (EFCA), says engineers must completely rethink the technical profile of physical structures to minimise their ecological impact.
Furthermore, she believes that consulting engineers have the knowledge and expertise to adapt to climate change, reinforce resilience, and deliver a built environment that is, in itself, part
of the solution.
By implementing sustainable design practices, optimising material selection and promoting circularity in the built environment, engineers can minimise the embodied carbon of structures. This is essential in combating climate change and achieving Europe’s sustainability goals.
