Real Estate Insights Podcast: What can the real estate industry take away from COP26?

The COP26 climate change conference was arguably the most important global summit in a decade, and certainly a crucial moment in the world’s fight to tackle the climate crisis. Several weeks on, Savills reflects on how it went and what the key outcomes mean for the real estate industry.

Join Guy Ruddle and guests: Emily Williams, associate director in residential research; Molly Biddell, a policy analyst specialising in natural capital; and Cameron Lloyd, a graduate energy consultant – all of whom attended events on the ground in Glasgow, speak about whether the experience was energising or deflating, what the big policy announcements mean for real estate, and where drive for change within the industry is coming from. 

 

Savills recognises real estate is responsible for 40 per cent of carbon emissions and, to coincide with COP26, and has launched related research examining how the sector is adapting to meet climate change challenges. Savills is committed to achieving net zero carbon in its operation by 2030.
