Climate Emergency
- Monday March 23, 2020
The IHE has joined forces with the Institution of Civil Engineers, the Institution of Structural Engineers and other leading organisations to sign a declaration of intent to seek to address the climate emergency.
The crises of climate breakdown and biodiversity loss are two of the most serious issues of our time. Our major infrastructure systems of transport, energy, water, waste, telecommunications
and flood defences play a major part, accounting for approximately half of energy-related carbon dioxide emissions while also having a significant impact on our natural habitats.
Full details are available at www.civilengineersdeclare.com. We urge your organisation to sign up and make the commitment.
