Can low carbon natural building products still be embraced whilst complying with the Building Safety Act? The new legislation will undoubtedly provide vital improvements for the safety of buildings and occupants, but what effects will the Act have on our climate change commitments? As voiced by the Climate Change Committee, “climate change is a building safety issue” and the focus on fire safety must be broadened to address the risks of climate change to building occupants and the health & safety of the wider population.
