Adding a sustainable twist…

Well, sort of. Couldn’t think of a different word to sum up the fact that I’m going to integrate posts related to my newly-started course in environmental studies and renewable energies.

I’m only a week in (and still not sure how it will work out alongside the day job plus learning Spanish and German) but this would seem like a good place to note any interesting little developments.

So, the first little nugget is that the AECB’s initiative to promote low carbon building, Passivhaus Buildings, is now operating under the name of the Passivhaus Trust. Its key aim is to ‘promote the reduction of energy use and carbon emissions from new and refurbished buildings’.
