  • The built environment is the biggest source of global carbon emissions, which makes us responsible for finding ways to improve across the entire sector.
  • By using technology, we can reduce carbon in all parts of the building life cycle.
  • Finding scalable ways to retrofit current buildings is just as important as developing cleaner construction methods.
  • Long-term impact means assuming upfront tech risk.
  • Investing in sustainability will become standard practice. To be an industry leader, we need to focus on the environment now.
