Sustainability Within Reach
The built environment is responsible for nearly 50% of global CO2 emissions. The US has 5.9 million commercial buildings containing 96 billion SF. GSA is now regulating building performance through Green Lease Initiatives for Federal agencies, beginning in 2024. State and local municipalities are beginning to follow suit. And, there is pressure from the bottom up, as businesses address ESG critera, and set new sustainability goals and requirements.
