Is the building industry becoming more or less sustainable in its consumption of energy and generation of greenhouse gasses?
Summary of the Research Question / Evidence Need:
The building industry is a major consumer of energy, and generates significant amounts of greenhouse gas from its supply chain including the production of cement and steel . Most of their activity relates to urban areas. Data on this is available at a UK level, but it is harder to obtain for Wales.

Mapping exercise looking at (1) area in Wales that are deprived in nature (2) areas in Wales that are dependant on an industry / employer (3) where that industry / employer will be phased out as part of a just transition with (4) optional research into areas in Wales with an education deficit. After mapping the above, to overlay the individual maps and create a ‘heat map’ of areas in Wales where an investment in nature-based green jobs would have the maximum impact on nature, communities, and people as part of a just transition.
Summary of the Research Question / Evidence Need:
Previous research has found that the right investment in nature restoration could deliver up to 7,000 nature-based green jobs in Wales over the next decade. However, there is a real need to understand what jobs and skills need to be created where, in order to truly deliver for nature and for communities. A ‘heat map’ could help develop a spatial approach to delivering the right job in the right place. In order to ensure its relevance, the research could:
1. Link into the ongoing work of the Nature Service Wales Partnership to help shape future policy
2. Help shape the delivery of pilot projects that provide nature based green skills and jobs across Wales
3. Provide a comms piece for all work on green jobs and a just transition in the lead up to the next Senedd elections
Keywords (discipline, other): Geography, nature, industry, education, impact, GIS, Just Transition, communications, politics, policy
