Environmental Sustainability

As the world’s largest manager of commercial buildings, CBRE has both a responsibility and an opportunity to influence the way buildings are built, sourced, managed, occupied and sold.

We recognize that buildings are a significant contributor to global carbon emissions. From resource management and procurement initiatives to employee training and academic collaboration, our sustainability programs help reduce the impact of buildings on the environment and, at the same time, create a positive effect on the communities in which we live and work.

Driving sustainable real estate practices is a fundamental principal of our environmental leadership. Protecting the health of our planet is a responsibility we embrace.
