The concept of 'A healthy planet for healthy people' emphasises sustainability as essential for mitigating climate change's impact. 

The construction industry significantly contributes to global carbon emissions, highlighting the need for sustainable practices throughout a building’s lifecycle. 

Sustainable construction prioritises eco-friendly materials, waste management and energy efficiency. 

Healthy buildings integrate features to enhance occupants' mental and physical well-being while reducing environmental impact. Key elements include ventilation, thermal comfort, air quality, and moisture control.

Case studies like ZGF's warehouse redesign and the Phipps Centre illustrate exemplary sustainable practices, achieving certifications like LEED Platinum and WELL Platinum for their innovative, eco-friendly designs.
