By the year 2020 all new houses built in the UK will
have to reduce
their carbon emissions by 20% - 60% by 2050.
Mike
Hinman managing director of Stoneguard says
"We are building a C60 house 44 years ahead of its time and I
am
proud of my company's involvement."
Mark Gillot of the University
says
"The technology is here: let's build the house and prove it can
be
done now."
Many companies that have been heavily involved with
environmental issues for years can now have their products
incorporated in the Stoneguard C60 Research House where they will be independently
monitored and their effectiveness proven.

Students now and over the next 20 years will assist in the building
and monitoring of the house and using that wealth of knowledge will develop
their own ideas which can only benefit their future environment.
