The built environment is responsible for 40% of global energy consumption, 40% of raw aggregate consumption and 25% of the world's wood consumption. In addition to direct demand for materials, all new housing/industrial developments induce additional consumption patterns and new demands for heat, electricity and transport. Collectively, these demands have material impacts on global GHG emissions and biodiversity loss.These issues will neither be overcome by the Future Homes Standard(2025), nor Whole Life Assessment, which both consider only a sub-set of the total impacts of the development(e.g. only operational energy and direct materials).Given the climate and biodiversity emergencies, many developers, stakeholders, local authorities and industry leaders are seeking to create developments that are truly sustainable- developments that reduce material use and make use of re-use and re-cycling opportunities across their lifecycles.Our vision is to specify and develop a new circular design tool for built environment professionals, which takes account of all impacts of the development (including induced activities such as transport, human activity and consumption). This will embed circular approaches at the earliest stage of design, reducing materials use and designing-out unsustainable consumption to deliver truly sustainable developments.By embedding circular decision-making within the masterplanning stage, we will support a step-change in the adoption of circular economy approaches within the built environment.

建筑环境消耗了全球 40% 的能源、40% 的原骨料消耗和 25% 的木材消耗。除了对材料的直接需求外，所有新的住房/工业发展都会引发额外的消费模式以及对热力、电力和交通的新需求。总的来说，这些要求对全球温室气体排放和生物多样性丧失产生了重大影响。未来家园标准（2025）和终身评估都无法解决这些问题，两者都只考虑开发总体影响的一个子集（例如，仅限运营能源和直接材料）。鉴于气候和生物多样性紧急情况，许多开发商、利益相关者、地方当局和行业领导者正在寻求创造真正可持续的开发项目，即减少材料使用并利用再利用和我们的愿景是为建筑环境专业人士指定和开发一种新的循环设计工具，该工具考虑了开发的所有影响（包括交通、人类活动和消费等诱发活动）。这将在设计的最初阶段嵌入循环方法，减少材料的使用和设计不可持续的消耗，以实现真正的可持续发展。通过在总体规划阶段嵌入循环决策，我们将支持循环利用的逐步改变建筑环境中的经济方法。
