520			_aThis report argues that, unless changes are made to industry practices, there is a significant risk that the government's investment in sustainable communities will provide only short-lived benefits. The construction industry is key to building links between people and their environment, but there is a limited understanding of new and emerging technologies within the industry, and slowness in reducing environmental damage. The report recommends that the industry develop a whole life approach on each project, engage local suppliers and labour as a matter of policy, and set deadlines for recovery / recycling of specified percentages of waste and materials used. The report gives examples of current good practice.
