With buildings responsible for nearly 40% of global #carbon emissions, adopting the #LEED O+M (Operations & Maintenance) framework is key to decarbonizing existing structures and advancing toward #netzero. It also facilitates benchmarking and performance tracking, both of which are crucial in any organization's transition toward #netzero. At Burj Khalifa LLC , the world’s tallest building, we applied #LEED O+M to achieve #LEED Platinum certification. This required a collaborative and integrative approach between Farnek Services LLC and Emaar, tackling the unique challenges of decarbonizing such a large and complex building. We showcased this achievement at the recent Emirates Environmental Group event, demonstrating how even the tallest buildings can decarbonize and align with broader #ESG goals. It’s proof that with the right framework, #sustainability in the #builtenvironment is not only achievable but impactful. It was also a privilege to join a panel alongside industry leaders Haithem IbraheemJason Carlow Sarfraz DairkeeThanveer Hussain where we discussed key factors in decarbonizing skyscrapers, including: 1. Shifting mindsets 2. Embracing innovation and adaptability 3. Challenging conventional practices 4. Fostering collaboration and stakeholder engagement Above all, #commitment emerged as the most critical element in achieving #netzero and sustainable success. Special thank Ms. Habiba Al Mar’ashi , my inspiring role model, for her ongoing contributions to the sustainability movement and her impactful leadership in driving the market forward. #Sustainability #LEEDPlatinum #NetZero #BurjKhalifa #GreenBuildings #ESG #Collaboration #Decarbonization #BuiltEnvironment #LEEDOM #EEG

So much to achieve together for #generationrestoration. Gratitude and KUDOS to all of them who are trying hard to protect #Mother #Nature. To reach a net-zero-emission economy by mid-century, transformative changes are essential across all sectors, focusing on innovation and efficiency. The transition encompasses a wide array of strategies, each tailored to specific sectors but interconnected in the overall objective of #sustainability and #reduced #emissions. The #building sector needs to #accelerate the adoption of energy-efficient designs and technologies. Implementing smarter, sustainable building practices is crucial for reducing overall energy consumption and emissions. The #transport industry must shift rapidly toward zero-carbon options. This includes a widespread adoption of electric vehicles, expansion of efficient public transit, and investment in green infrastructure. These changes are essential to reduce the sector's significant environmental impact. #Industrially, there is a need for a robust move towards circular economy principles. This shift involves reducing waste, enhancing recycling, and redesigning products for longer life cycles. Industries must innovate to reduce emissions while continuing to drive economic growth. The #energy sector is at the core of this transformation and must transition to renewable and low-carbon sources more quickly. Increasing the reliability and affordability of clean energy will support the other sectors' transitions and is critical for overall success. Finally, efforts in conserving and #restoring natural ecosystems must be scaled up. Sustainable land management, reforestation, and #biodiversity protection are essential in balancing emissions and maintaining ecological health. Each of these sectoral changes is crucial to achieving the broader goal of a net-zero emissions future. The focus is on urgent, concrete actions and industry-wide transformations that are both innovative and efficient. #togther #collobration. #sustainability #sustainable #climatechange #climateaction #netzero #esg #emissions #economy
