Vores bæredygtighedspolitik beskriver vores ambition om at reducere vores miljøpåvirkning og skabe bæredygtige fremgangsmåder inden for fast ejendom.

 

Our Impact

Nearly 97% of our total emissions are related to managing and developing properties for our clients. This includes in-use emissions from managed properties and assets under management, procurement of goods and services on behalf of our clients, embodied carbon and capital goods used in real estate development, and fuel combustion from vehicles used to service properties. CBRE’s ability to achieve our net zero ambition is directly connected to our clients’ and suppliers’ investments in decarbonization.

About 3% of our emissions are associated with our corporate operations. This includes energy use in our leased offices, corporate procurement, waste, employee commute and business travel.

Our Progress


Since 2019, CBRE has reduced absolute GHG emissions across total Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions by 18%. Scope 1 and 2 emissions make up a small part of our total impact (0.5%) and have decreased 25% since 2019, putting us on track to achieve our near-term target ahead of 2030. Emissions from properties we manage for clients (Scope 3.11) have decreased 19% per square foot since 2019.

We have a clear understanding of the actions required to reach our near-term absolute reduction target. Scope 3 emissions (99.5%) remain our biggest challenge—and an even greater opportunity. While holding ourselves accountable across our corporate operations, we can apply the same insights and expertise to actions for our clients as they work to decarbonize their own real estate portfolios. We know that progress will not be linear and sustained progress will become increasingly complex.
