Conclusion
The UK is slipping behind comparator countries in Europe in monitoring and controlling the embodied carbon in construction. If the UK continues to drag its feet on embodied carbon, it will not meet net zero or its carbon budgets. There is significant opportunity for the UK to learn from emerging international best practice on how to introduce whole-life and embodied carbon regulations.
