Sustainability in the built environment

Greenplaces is hosting Sustainability in the built environment.

  • Built environment

Recap & highlights

In this on-demand webinar we explore how to navigate the complex landscape of climate disclosure requirements, track emissions across operations and supply chains—including Scope 3 and embodied carbon—and turn sustainability into a competitive advantage.

About this event

The built environment is responsible for nearly 42% of global emissions—and the spotlight on this sector is only intensifying. Clients, regulators, and investors are demanding measurable proof of sustainable design, not just commitments. With California’s SB 253 and SB 261, heightened investor scrutiny, and competitive project bidding, firms must deliver transparent, compliant, and value-driven strategies—or risk being left behind.

This webinar will explore how to navigate the complex landscape of climate disclosure requirements, track emissions across operations and supply chains—including Scope 3 and embodied carbon—and turn sustainability into a competitive advantage.

Why watch

The path to decarbonization is challenging, especially for firms that must balance ambitious targets with operational realities. Whether you’re focused on compliance, meeting client demands, or positioning your firm as a climate leader, this session will give you the insights needed to move forward with confidence.
