Responding to the climate emergency
City governments across the globe are setting bold commitments to move to a net zero economy. Buildings account for around 60% of carbon emissions in cities and decarbonizing real estate will be crucial to meeting city net zero targets. The pressure on real estate owners, developers and occupiers will only intensify.
Our latest research will help you navigate the complex global landscape of net zero commitments, regulations, reporting requirements and incentives across 32 global cities. We want to help inform your real estate decarbonization strategy, looking beyond current regulation to create competitive advantage and future-proof your assets - whether you are a real estate owner, developer, investor or corporate occupier.
