About the ULI Sustainability Outlook

ULI is eager to keep our members abreast of the topics and issues on the rise in sustainable real estate. The Sustainability Outlook aims to inform members and the broader real estate industry on what sustainability topics and issues are on the rise, why they matter, and what actions the industry should pursue. On the basis of the knowledge shared through interviews with Product Council members, Greenprint identifies a set of key issues that will likely affect our decision-making in the months ahead, and beyond.
