When it comes to the environment, the real estate community has the opportunity to be a huge force for positive change.
The impact that the built environment has on the climate is a much-quoted statistic. The sector may well contribute 40% of emissions, but this means it is uniquely placed to deliver the biggest positive impact on the planet.
Real estate is a sector full of professionals that can create new green spaces and can retrofit, recycle and put to better use the buildings we use for work, rest and play – and all those spaces between them. It just needs to come together to do so properly.
And that is why EG is putting the environment at its core, through the content we write, the events we produce and the data we deliver.
At this year’s Sustainability Live we invite you to join us on an educational tour of some practical solutions to the climate challenge, and to engage with some insightful discussions about what real estate can do now to bring about positive climate change – not just by 2050 – and how finance will be key to solving the built environment’s sustainability challenge.
Join leaders and experts from across the built environment, including head of real assets at Legal & General Investment Management Bill Hughes, Nina Reid, head of responsible property investing at M&G Real Estate, and Judith Everett, executive director of purpose, sustainability and stakeholder at the Crown Estate, to be not just part of the conversation but part of the solution.
Registration for this exclusive event, which takes place at the recently complete Cadworks in Glasgow – one of just two buildings in the Scottish city that is delivering on sustainability credentials – is now open.
A free to attend, in-person event where you can learn, network and help play your part in solving the climate crisis.
