Reduce Carbon, Build Value

ULI’s Decarbonization Program is focused on climate mitigation and makes the business case for green buildings by tying carbon reductions to increased asset value. The program includes three workstreams to advance decarbonization in the global real estate industry: The ULI Greenprint Community, Decarbonization Thought Leadership, and Decarbonization City Engagement. The Decarbonization Program is organized within ULI’s Randall Lewis Center for Sustainability in Real Estate, which also covers Urban Resilience and Healthy Places.

The real estate industry is at a critical point to decarbonize as governmental regulations, investor pressures, and transition risks are at an all time high. Ultimately, the goal will be to reach net zero, but it can be difficult to know where to start or how to push forward. The ULI Decarbonization Program frames the journey to net zero as a six step process.
