Net Zero. 

It's something the industry is aiming for, and an important milestone we need to reach.

But not all Net Zeroes are equal.

There's Net Zero....  and then there's MONTHLY Net Zero!

One is a bit 'meh', but the other brings a whole lot of resilience for the household and the grid.

Don't know what I'm talking about?

Come to the next Transition Talks, where we we discuss:

• The difference between Net Zero and Monthly Net Zero, and why we should be aiming for the latter.
• And most importantly, how you can achieve it on your next project!

Got you interested?

See you there...

The event will run via Zoom on Friday 9 May from 1-2pm AEST. The presentation will be followed by an unrecorded Q&A to create a safe space for discussion.

Architects Declare are committed to equity and diversity in design - stay tuned for a line up of multi-disciplinary speakers, with a monthly Friday talk to unpack solutions for transitioning to a net zero future.
