🤝 We had a wonderful time meeting everyone at the Information Management Network (IMN) ESG & Decarbonizing Real Estate Forum last week. Read below to see some of our key takeaways, including increased demand for decarbonization proof. #decarbonization #netzero
☀ The Carbonsight (by Autocase) Team (Simon Fowell, Riley McKillop, Shane Minckley) recently attended Information Management Network (IMN)'s ESG & Decarbonizing Real Estate Forum and it was a real eye-opener...and yes, we gave free (wellness) shots to everyone who stopped by! 🌟 Here are our key takeaways: ESG Reporting Alone Isn’t Enough: While reporting on ESG metrics is crucial, it’s clear that documenting historical performance won’t drive the decarbonization of our building stock. The market needs actionable plans and robust strategies. Peer Benchmarking Falls Short: Comparing performance to peers isn’t reflecting the urgency or scale of changes required to meet sustainability goals. Ambitious targets must be set that pushes boundaries beyond current industry standards. Demand for Decarbonization Proof: It’s no longer sufficient to simply establish sustainability targets. Tenants and investors are increasingly demanding concrete proof of decarbonization strategies, as well as real and measurable progress on action. It’s evident that the real estate industry needs to shift focus from reporting and benchmarking on historical performance, to implementing and proving decarbonization efforts. Let’s rise to the challenge and turn ESG commitments into tangible actions! 💡 🌎 #ESG #Decarbonization #Sustainability #IMNDecarbForum
