Increasing the use of recycled materials within transport infrastructure can not only provide better environmental outcomes, but better, more durable transport infrastructure. NTRO's national leader, sustainability, Dr Clarissa Han, recently addressed the Rail Decarbonisation Conference in Melbourne. She spoke about: ♻ Rail materials that contribute most to our carbon footprint ♻ The recycled materials that can be used instead ♻ How we can lift market uptake of recyclables in rail infrastructure ♻ NTRO’s work in this space She discusses these topics in a short video you'll find here https://hubs.li/Q028rrcp0

I am so glad to be interviewed by the Rail Decarbonisation Conference, and talk about NTRO recent work on the Best practice advice for the use of recycled materials for both roads and rail, the market opportunities and our rigorous risk management approaches https://lnkd.in/gpCR6Ma4

The green lease is a valid step forward in embedding sustainability in commercial landlord-tenant relationships, and we applaud it. But be sure you know the extent of what you're signing up for. Because a thorough green lease is likely to include specific and measurable obligations around energy efficiency and renewability, water use, waste reduction and increased recycling, sustainable choices of building materials for works, repairs, and alterations, and the sharing of consumption and environmental performance data. Can you deliver on all that?
