ZERO CARBON IS THE FUTURE

ZERO CARBON IS THE FUTURE

In the future, financiers will no longer invest in companies that do not show their commitment to green values such as Zero Carbon.

RAISING AMBITION TO DECARBONIZE THE BUILDING SECTOR EVERYWHERE

The importance of zero carbon buildings (ZCBs) to a sustainable future is clear. Buildings are responsible for nearly 30% of global energy-related greenhouse gas emissions. Fortunately, reducing energy demand in buildings also represents the most cost-effective way to tackle climate change and better buildings can add important co-benefits, like improving health and quality of life for residents and workers.

The ownership and brand value of the building will remain stable and increase as the value of environmental values increases.

In the future, financiers will no longer invest in companies that do not show their commitment to green values such as Zero Carbon.

Zero carbon buildings are crucial to global climate goals.

 

IMPORTANCE OF GREEN BUILDING

What is green building?

Green building, or sustainable design, is the practice of increasing the efficiency with which buildings and their sites use energy, water, and materials, and of reducing impacts on human health and the environment for the entire lifecycle of a building. Green-building concepts extend beyond the walls of buildings and include site planning, community, and land-use planning issues as well.

Why is green building
important?

The growth and development of our communities has a large impact on our natural environment. The manufacturing, design, construction and operation of the buildings in which we live and work are responsible for the consumption of many of our natural resources.
