Research Interests
I have developed my research interests over the last 10 years, to include environmental attitudes and issues within industry, particularly looking at Environmental Management Systems and the ways these can be implemented and incorporated into management structure and issues surrounding sustainability in construction on a wide scale, with a particular interest in waste related issues. I am also involved in work to investigate the barriers to incorporating environmental improvements within commercial lease structures.
