Building a Sustainable Future | Decarbonizing the Built Environment
The building sector accounts for nearly 40% of carbon emissions and nearly 50% of the consumption of natural resources. The industry stands at a crossroads of several pressing challenges, such as the dwindling availability of resources, climate change, the energy crisis, rapid urbanization and population growth.
We have no choice but to tackle these challenges head-on, and we need to act quickly. To achieve a more sustainable future, we must adopt a new approach to manufacturing and construction, and our mission is clear: to communicate, create and accelerate science-based efforts to push boundaries and decarbonize the built environment.
Learn more about our commitment to decarbonizing the built environment as we work to achieve net-zero carbon by 2050.
