How we burn energy
The highest percentage of energy in the UK is used by individuals.
Importing food and building materials from far away rather
than sourcing them locally, using expensive and non-renewable
fuels to heat our homes, driving long distances to work –
it all mounts up. |

UK Average % of total CO2 emissions
Making changes in the way we live is the most environmentally
beneficial and cost-effective way to reduce our CO2 emissions.
That means using local building materials that can be renewed,
finding cheaper and cleaner ways to heat our homes, eating
locally-produced food and minimising the need to commute to
work.
It’s also important to create beautiful homes in attractive
neighbourhoods that people will want to look after and live
in for many years to come – the true meaning of sustainability.
So in our Living Villages neighbourhoods, the first thing
we do is build in a sense of place.
