Is sustainability dead? I’ve been asked this a number of times in recent weeks, as people come to grips with a challenging construction market, shifting public attitudes to climate change, claims of ‘green fatigue’ and a changing political landscape.

Sustainable places for everyone - not just the lucky few

In 2014 World Green Building Week runs from 22 - 26 September and is encouraging people to take direct action and ‘Get Up, Green Up’.

“The City of Melbourne strives to achieve the community’s vision of Melbourne as a bold, inspirational and sustainable city - a great place for people to live and visit.

We’re changing the world. Come with us

Take action this World Green Building Week
