OPENING DOORS TO ZERO CARBON BUILDING PORTFOLIOS
The truth is harsh. To meet the demands of the Paris Agreement and combat the climate emergency facing the globe, every building in the world needs to be Zero Carbon by 2050—less than 30 years from now. The Indian government has also committed to achieve net zero emissions for the entire economy by 2070. Achieving net zero carbon emissions in the construction sector is relatively easier and less expensive as compared to other sectors, through a combination of energy efficiency and renewable energy. A zero carbon building is at least 40% more energy efficient than business as usual and is fully powered from renewable energy. Organizations like the World Green Building Council have been calling on companies, cities, states, regions, and organizations to reach net-zero operating emissions in their portfolios by 2030, and for all buildings to be net zero in operations by 2050. This will be critical to limiting global temperature rise to 1.5 degrees Celsius by mid-century.
