Online Green Future Conference 2020 - ACT!ON or NO?ACT

ACT!ON Climate or NO?ACT. Should we act or remain in a waiting position? We vote for immediate action to tackle the virus situation and the climate crisis. Therefore, the aim of this year’s conference is to show ways out, strategies and examples to follow that encourage to take action.

The world has been talking about the urgency of tackling climate change for years, but action is not strong and fast enough. Now, however, the COVID-19 oandemic has thoroughly twisted our normal lives out of the corners. We had to realize that quick response, two steps ahead, flexibility and the adoption and application of new tools and solutions are the main ammunition for survival.

Forward-looking, responsible political and economic actors have already recognized that “greening” and sustainability are the only way out of the current complex situation, which simultaneously addresses the issue of human health and safety. Namely with comprehensive - but due to their complexity - cross-industry strategies.


What does this mean for the built environment?

The task is twofold: to stay afloat in the short term and to act for the human existence in the long run. The problem of global warming will not fade away. The reduction of carbon emissions from buildings, and their net zero status must be accelerated. In the future, it is only worth to design healthy, livable and profitable buildings and operate them in an energy-efficient, cost-optimized, sustainable way.

The building was completed in 2016 as a prime example. So far, more than 50,000 visitors have been curious about the solutions used.

THOUGHT PROVOKING

Environmentally conscious developments in the automobile- and construction industries

How has the development of cars formed in the last 20 years in terms of materials and technologies that have influenced environmental protection and the reduction of CO2 emissions?  Which developments failed and why? Which ones got the green light quickly and spread? Trends over the next 5-10 years in terms of carbon emissions, health and safety.
Róbert Szabó | Editor-in-Chief, Autó-Motor Magazin

11:30 Questions and Answers

PANEL DISCUSSION

Our experts share their thoughts on how climate policy and national regulation support or hinder the “green” transformation of the built environment? What do Hungarian construction professionals see as the next step towards greening? And where is the regulation going? Is a green office attractive enough to compete with a home office?

The discussion is moderated by:
Zoltán Radnóty | Real Estate Development Specialist
, Vice-President of HuGBC

Guests:
Dr. Barbara Botos | Deputy Secretary of State for Climate Action, ITM
Balázs Báthory | Deputy CEO, Innovation and Strategic Developments, Market Zrt.
