Welcome back to the F&T Time podcast for 2025!
For the first episode of the new season, we are joined by Dr. Alastair Woodard, a renowned expert in sustainable building practices and author of the ground-breaking report Steps Towards a Greener Future.
We dive into critical findings from the report, which outlines a roadmap for reducing embodied carbon in construction while meeting Australia’s urgent housing goals under the National Housing Accord.
Dr. Woodard shares his expert insights into the pivotal role of timber and other low-carbon materials in creating durable, high-quality homes that support net zero ambitions. We also discuss the 23 practical recommendations introduced in the report, spanning government policy, industry collaboration, and education initiatives that can transform the construction sector.
Whether you're a builder, policymaker, environmental advocate, or simply interested in sustainable housing, this episode is packed with invaluable knowledge and actionable solutions to inspire change.
