SUMMARY:BuyClean Implementation Paper Launch Webinar
DESCRIPTION:We are thrilled to invite you to the webinar launch of our new report\, Building Success: Implementing Effective Buy Clean Policies\, taking place on March 6th at 11:00am ET. \nThis landmark report\, based on feedback from the Buy Clean Workshop in October 2023\, provides practical guidance and policy recommendations for governments looking to implement successful Buy Clean policies. \nJoin us for an insightful fireside chat with the President of the Treasury Board\, Minister Anita Anand\, where she will discuss the importance of Buy Clean policies in driving sustainable procurement and greening our economy. The fireside chat will be followed by a presentation of the report and an expert panel. \nThe workshop and report launch are hosted by the Buy Clean Industry Alliance\, a coalition of industry associations\, think tanks\, labour and environmental groups with a common goal of advocating for a national Buy Clean strategy\, and the Future of Infrastructure Group\, which brings together leading infrastructure companies. \nFeatured Speaker: \nHon. Anita Anand\, President of the Treasury Board of Canada \nPanelists: \nOllie Sheldrick\, Clean Energy Canada \nJolene MacLaughlin\, Ellis Don \nMatt Humphries\, Arup \nSarah Petrevan\, Cement Association \nRob Cooney\, Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat

SUMMARY:Joint Event - Buy Clean Industry Alliance and Future of Infrastructure Group
DESCRIPTION:With unprecedented levels of investment in infrastructure across Canada and a federal commitment to reach net zero emissions by 2050\, the infrastructure sector is facing a transformative period. Governments at the federal and subnational levels are implementing Buy Clean policies to mandate lower-carbon construction. Adopting these standards within project budgets and timelines will require the infrastructure supply chain to adapt. \nTo turn this challenge into an opportunity\, the Buy Clean Industry Alliance and the Future of Infrastructure Group have come together to host a workshop with a select group of industry leaders and experts from across the sector. The aim is to map out a workable path to implementing Buy Clean requirements and adopting low-carbon building materials and practices. \nThis event is by invite only.

SUMMARY:Moving from Cost to Value and Net Zero
DESCRIPTION:As towns and cities in the UK and Canada continue to grow\, transit will play an increasingly important role in connecting people to jobs\, supporting economic growth\, reducing environmental impact\, and as the anchor for Transit Oriented Development/Communities (TOD/TOC). Transit systems are expanding in both countries with major investments in infrastructure and vehicles\, but to encourage more people to ride transit there are many factors to consider. These include: the design of transit stations and integration with surrounding communities; getting the right service levels and timetables; and making travel simple and more convenient for riders. \nBoth the UK and Canada are focused on the role transit and infrastructure will play in economic recovery\, and both have committed to reaching net zero emissions by 2050. The transport sector is responsible for around a third of emissions in both Canada and the UK\, and congestion costs billions of dollars and pounds each year. Well-functioning transit systems can help to address both these issues and deliver wider economic\, social\, and environmental benefits. This roundtable will provide an opportunity to discuss how to boost transit ridership\, and support both countries on the journey to net zero.

SUMMARY:Moving from Cost to Value and Net Zero
DESCRIPTION:Environmental performance and economic value go hand-in-hand when assessed over the lifetime of infrastructure. When projects are planned and procured it is often only the upfront costs for design and construction considered. More innovative designs and building materials may cost more initially\, but can reduce lifecycle costs and substantially reduce greenhouse gas emissions over the years a piece of infrastructure is in use. By capturing that lifetime value it becomes easier to fairly compare proposals and deliver long-term cost savings and environmental benefits. \nBoth the UK and Canada are focused on the role infrastructure will play in economic recovery\, and both have also committed to producing net zero emissions by 2050. This roundtable will provide an opportunity to share best practices on how infrastructure investment can deliver better environmental and economic outcomes\, and support both countries on the journey to net zero.
