What can we do to be more comfortable inside during extreme weather? From cooling down in the more extreme summer temperatures, to staying warmer in winter – all without relying on fossil fuels. Find out more in this week’s ‘Sandbox’ FOMO5...

From understanding more about our buildings to changing behaviours around the way we consume energy, there’s something we can all do to create better conditions within our indoor environments during extreme weather – from artic blasts to heatwaves.

In our latest Sandbox episode, our panel explored this idea, and gave insights into what the individual can do by understanding more about insulating our homes and our energy usage, not only to make our buildings more comfortable but also to help mitigate the effects of climate change.

Joining our regular host Andy Duncan in this episode, are Buro Happold experts Lara Balazs, Cities Energy Associate, and Tom Newby, Director, Structures. Our special guest in this episode is Smith Mordak, Chief Executive at UKGBC and an architect, engineer, and writer, who regularly contributes to national and trade press including the Guardian, Financial Times, Dezeen, and The Architect’s Journal.
