According to the DofE: 'Sustainable development means encouraging economic growth while protecting the environment and improving our quality of life - all without affecting the ability of future generations to do the same.'
YDP sees sustainable development (SD) within the building industry as key to tackling the linked challenges of climate change, resource use, economic prosperity and social well-being. SD is designed into each of Yellow Door’s projects and it views the stipulations of its Planning Consents as a social responsibility and not a burden. YDP always seeks to exceed statutory requirements in respect of insulation, alternative energy sources and water conservation.
