Resumen del seminario web:

In the realm of construction, every single component matters – from the concrete foundations to the final brush of paint. It’s not just about structural integrity, but also about the profound influence these materials have on human well-being, our climate, and global ecosystems.

Historically, the importance of building materials was underemphasized in sustainability discussions within the real estate sector. However, they're now coming to the forefront as pivotal in achieving net-zero carbon emission objectives and ensuring health-centric environments for tenants and the wider community.

There is a strong business case for healthy and sustainable building materials, including preparing for expected regulations, aligning with building certification programs, meeting market demand, capturing increased value for assets, and achieving environmental, social, and governance (ESG) goals.

This webinar, based on a report published by ULI by the same title, aims to provide foundational knowledge on this issue. Attendees will walk away with a deeper understanding of the science behind material impacts on people and planet, the business case for better material choices, and strategies for reducing embodied carbon and improving material health in development.
