Botswana Green Building Council

Do you find it challenging to navigate the range of voluntary ESG schemes? Companies and financial institutions across the globe have used green building certification to verify the sustainability credentials of projects for decades. However, there are inconsistencies in the application of metrics and standards, and ESG schemes are being used differently by different groups of actors. In the latest factsheet in the World Green Building Council #SustainableFinance series, we explore entity and asset-level voluntary schemes for energy and emissions in the global real estate sector. Read the factsheet to: ✅ compare the difference between entity and asset-level schemes, and ✅ explore the key international voluntary ESG schemes in real estate. With increasing financial and non-financial disclosure regulations, as well as a host of climate commitments from corporate and financial actors, see our factsheet to understand how we can use ESG schemes to benchmark, report and verify our progress, and create a resilient and decarbonised future for the built environment. https://lnkd.in/exQPmykV While you’re there, also check out our factsheets on EU Taxonomy, including Nearly Zero Energy Buildings, Major renovations and Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs). #BuildingTheTransition #ClimateWeekNYC Sweden Green Building Council, SBC GREECE (Sustainable Building Council Greece) UK Green Building Council (UKGBC) U.S. Green Building Council Vietnam Green Building Council (VGBC)
