Smaller homes could cut Europe's CO₂ building emissions
Buildings are responsible for around 40% of CO2 emissions in the European Union. This means the building sector has a central role to play in achieving the EU's climate targets by 2050. An EU research project involving Graz University of Technology (TU Graz) has analyzed CO2 emissions from the European building stock over its entire life cycle and identified ways to reduce them.
