Rural Builds vs Urban Revival
Description
The government’s push to build 2,500 new homes yearly in the countryside sparks debate—while aiming to boost housing supply, critics warn it could worsen climate goals. A smarter alternative? Revitalizing vacant urban buildings, which could create 120,000 homes using just 25% of the carbon emissions of new builds, faster and with existing infrastructure. The real leadership opportunity? Backing proven urban renewal plans like Town Centre First to make cities vibrant again—not just spreading development further out.
