Doug is due to speak this afternoon at Ecobuild in the “Politics of Carbon Emissions Data” Debate with other members of the Edge. Doug will be asking whether the current metrics really tell us anything meaningful about building performance.
Doug is heading off to Puducherry in India to help in the design of a new residential education centre for sustainable corporate governance. The centre is being developed in the middle of an organic farm by the Sri Aurobindo Society, the charity behind one of the largest ashrams in the country.
Today, Doug joined a panel of internationally leading architects and urban designers, including Jan Gehl and David Mackay, to help the residents of Redcliffe in Bristol to develop their ideas and plans for the redevelopment of Redcliffe Way in one of the first initiatives under the new localism bill.
