Reducing the life cycle emissions of buildings and construction requires a holistic approach to both policymaking and industrial application across design and construction practices. The World Green Building Council have developed an , and supported development of 10 national whole life carbon roadmaps (HR, FI, FR, DE, IE, IT, NL, PL, ES, UK). Several Member States have been developing national policies addressing life cycle greenhouse gas emissions, for example the Nordic countries have been collaborating in this area. Many aspects of circular and resource efficient construction are effective strategies to reduce life cycle emissions, for example increasing re-use and recycled content in construction products, or prioritising renovation over demolition and reconstruction. During 2022 as part of the International Energy Agency’s Annex 72 project ‘Assessing Life Cycle Related Environmental Impacts Caused by Buildings’ , around 40 scientific experts on life cycle emissions of the built environment signed the ‘Monte Verità Declaration ‘ This includes recommendations for action
by policymakers, industry and other stakeholders.
