To empower all corners of the property and construction sectors to engage in the green transition, UKGBC has developed Bitesize Explainer Guides – a suite of resources that demystify key sustainability concepts and create a common language for non-technical experts to confidently get involved in sustainable building topics.

Using jargon-free, easy-to-understand language, UKGBC’s Explainer Guides provide a jumping-off point for non-sustainability professionals to begin their sustainability learning journey.

The one-pager guides break down key climate and nature topics into digestible chunks outlining:

  • How it is defined
  • Its importance in tackling the climate crisis
  • How it relates to the built environment
  • Relevant resources to consolidate knowledge.
