World Green Building Week 2021

Buildings are responsible for 38% of global energy-related carbon emissions and 50% of all extracted materials. Four billion people are vulnerable to climate risks and 91% of people worldwide live in areas with air pollution.

By 2050, the world’s building stock will double, increasing the impact of our sector significantly. Its demand on natural resources accelerates climate change, and inefficient, unhealthy buildings are affecting our livelihoods.

Last week was World Green Building Week, the world’s largest campaign to accelerate sustainable buildings for everyone, everywhere. Find out more about delivering sustainable buildings so that we can build back better here.
