In this follow-up episode of BE Sustainable, our experts Dr Pippa Boyd and Dr Ankit Singh get into the nitty-gritty of turning circular economy concepts into reality within the built environment. From navigating the complexities of circular economy management to pioneering innovative business models, our guests discuss how standardisation, material passports, and even second-hand markets could be the answer the built environment needs. They also unpack the tricky question of regulation – who should be leading this change? And how can we ensure innovation in building design isn't stifled along the way? Subscribe now via:- Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ucem/id1524980861 - Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3Czk2mZlZmknjUZfwLmLTa - YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/universitycollegeofestatemanagementGuests:Dr Pippa BoydDr Pippa Boyd is a Senior Lecturer at UCEM who is involved in the development and delivery of UCEM's MSc Innovation in Sustainable Built Environments.

What if the buildings we live and work in could be designed to last forever? This episode of BE Sustainable explores the potential of the circular economy in the built environment. Joined by experts Dr Ankit Singh and Dr Pippa Boyd, they discuss how we can shift from the traditional "take, make, break" model to one where materials are reused, repurposed, and regenerated. Our guests highlight examples of this principle in practice, critically examine the role of material hierarchies and discuss the real challenges and benefits of implementing the concept of circular economy within the built environment. With 80% of the buildings that will exist in 2050 already built, could this be the key to achieving net-zero? Subscribe now via:- Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ucem/id1524980861- Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3Czk2mZlZmknjUZfwLmLTa- YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/universitycollegeofestatemanagementDr Pippa BoydDr Pippa Boyd is a Senior Lecturer at UCEM who is involved in the development and delivery of UCEM's MSc Innovation in Sustainable Built Environments.
