The UK is currently missing almost all climate targets

The climate and nature crisis is the greatest threat humanity has faced.

Design gives us the power to repair and restore our world: from retrofitting buildings to developing infrastructure for electric transport, improving products’ energy efficiency, and creating a secure, circular economy.

Designers can make every day environmentally positive choices affordable, inclusive, and attractive for citizens.

The Government needs to align regulations with environmental targets to ensure a level playing field for sustainable design pioneers, and invest in design-led green innovation which can easily commercialise and bring down the cost of sustainable living.

Sustainable development demands good design. We won’t win the battle against climate change unless we design the solutions. – Lord Deben Chairman of the Climate Change Committee and Design for Planet 2022 speaker
