We are prepared to collaboratively tackle the emissions the sector is responsible for. WorldGBC and a coalition of NGOs are supporting the Cities, Regions and Built Environment Day at the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change 26th Conference of Parties (COP26) to bring this to the forefront of the conversation. As national governments submit updated Nationally Determined Contributions and embrace the opportunity of the green economy, we must ensure that the decarbonisation of the built environment is recognised as a specific target within their climate commitments and plans. The Race to Zero and Race to Resilience campaigns highlight non-party actor leadership ambition and action, demonstrating industry readiness for bolder regulation. We stand ready to harness the power of our Green Building Council (GBC) network and their membership to advocate for further government regulation and action towards net zero emissions in the lead up to COP26 and beyond. This report highlights the game changing achievements from GBCs, partners and Net Zero Carbon Buildings Commitment signatories. Amongst these achievements will be the announcement of the next milestone — advancing a Whole Life Carbon Vision through updating our Net Zero Carbon Buildings Commitment. This vital expansion will ensure our sector tackles emissions throughout the building lifecycle with a focus on upfront embodied carbon of materials and construction. I am hopeful for the future. I am energised to see Advancing Net Zero build momentum and continue to deliver on our shared vision of sustainable buildings for everyone, everywhere. ForewordWorldGBC Status Report 2021 4 5 To limit the consequences of climate change, net zero must become the rule, not the exception, across the built environment sector. WorldGBC’s Advancing Net Zero programme calls upon our industry to rise to the challenge. This initiative enables us to translate long-range ambitions into transformative actions we can take day by day. At SOM, we are increasingly empowered by the positive change we’re able to achieve by working with partners along the value chain. We are eager to lead by example, and through collaboration, to reinforce our commitment to decarbonising the sector — one team, one project, one place at a time. Mina Hasman associate director, skidmore, owings & merrill The world is warming at an unsustainable rate and the built environment contributes about 40 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions. This means our industry has a unique responsibility and opportunity to act. Given what’s at stake, it’s no longer enough to make ambitious commitments without translating them into real and tangible outcomes. This is why Lendlease has committed to #MissionZero and supporting important industry initiatives like the Advancing Net Zero project by the World Green Building Council. Industry collaboration is critical in order for our sector to meaningfully reduce its carbon footprint and tackle the climate crisis head on — it’s our biggest challenge, with our smallest target. Cate Harris group head of sustainability, lendlease ANZ partner messages The latest Advancing Net Zero Status Report showcases the critical role of the built environment in tackling carbon emissions and slowing the advance of global warming. There is a clear business case to realising net zero buildings, and business must play a driving role in the revolution that we need. As a signatory to the Commitment, Kingspan is proud to support this vital initiative, and share the success we have had to date in our own journey towards decarbonisation. Bianca Wong global head of sustainability, kingspan group As the world’s largest manager of commercial property, CBRE has the opportunity – and the motivation – to help stem the rise in global temperatures and preserve our planet for future generations. We support WorldGBC’s Advancing Net Zero project and the crucial work it does in engaging the sector to advance the uptake of net zero. At CBRE, we continue to do our part to significantly reduce emissions from our own operations and the properties we manage for clients. Jennifer L eitsch vice president, corporate responsibility, cbre We have entered a critical decade for the building sector to action net zero carbon and make it a reality at scale. Mott MacDonald is a proud signatory to the Commitment, it is in alignment with our carbon neutral certified company achievement and goal to become a Net Zero company. Advancing Net Zero is providing the critical guidance that we need to scale Net Zero Carbon Buildings and the whole life carbon vision is an important evolution for us to reach the carbon reduction that is essential for our future.

Value Proposition for net zero.44 We invite you to join us48WorldGBC Status Report 2021 In 2018, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change warned that global warming must not exceed 1.5°C to avoid the catastrophic impacts of climate change. To achieve this, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions must halve by 2030 — and drop to net zero by 2050. Despite the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, 2020 - 2021 saw a net rise in emissions, with the building and construction sector continuing to contribute a large proportion. A bold approach is urgently required to reduce the impacts of the sector, which is globally responsible for 36% of energy consumption, 38% of energy- related carbon emissions, 50% of resource consumption, and expected to double in total footprint by 2060. And, whilst embodied carbon currently accounts for 10% of emissions globally, it is estimated that more than half of total carbon emissions from all global new construction between 2020 and 2050 will be due to upfront emissions. WE MUST TAKE ACTION, TOGETHER. WorldGBC’s Advancing Net Zero is a global programme driving the ‘Climate Action’ pillar of our 2019 global strategy Sustainable Buildings for Everyone, Everywhere . We work with GBCs to advance our Whole Life Carbon Vision to decarbonise the built environment globally by addressing both operational carbon and embodied carbon emissions. We deliver action through seven impact pathways: collaborate, advocate, rate, communicate, educate, innovate and invest. The adoption of the Whole Life Carbon Vision continues apace with GBCs, helping to create opportunity by identifying innovative new projects, workstreams and initiatives to apply the concepts within a local context. This is building resilience for the planet, for people and for economies. GBCs continue to lead in efforts to decarbonise the built environment through a multitude of activities, initiatives and campaigns. Crucially, one of the key ways in which GBCs are embracing, and in turn contributing to action being taken towards the Whole Life Carbon Vision, is through their rating tools. These schemes are regularly updated and increase standard over time, such as the recent update to Green Star by GBCA (Australia). A six star rating requires buildings to be fossil fuel free and operationally net zero, with whole life carbon considerations taken into account across an assets lifecycle. This standard will gradually be introduced to the lower levels of Green Star over time, ensuring that this leadership position becomes a minimum standard by 2030. We also continue to see the benefits of local tools driving local action relative to market conditions. HKGBC (Hong Kong) are in the process of developing a new tool relevant to their local context, whilst SwedenGBC and EmiratesGBC are working on certifying the first buildings using their certification standards, NollCO 2 and ZeroEnergy / ZeroCarbon respectively. The continued development of both existing and new ratings tool will ultimately support the implementation of the whole life carbon roadmaps that many GBCs are working on via the #BuildingLife project and beyond. Please see our World Map graphic on page 16-17 for the GBCs participating in the projects, and click on their logo to find out how they are advancing net zero buildings in their markets. Delivering a Whole Life Carbon Vision FROM 2030 Following this trajectory aims to create the conditions so that Australia’s National Construction Code can be updated to deliver Climate Positive Buildings 6 star FROM 2020 onwards buildings that seek this rating WORLD LEADERSHIP will need to be Climate Positive 5 star FROM 2023 onwards buildings that seek this rating AUSTRALIAN EXCELLENCE will need to be Climate Positive 4 star FROM 2026 onwards buildings that seek this rating BEST PRACTICE will need to be Climate Positive 8 9 CASE STUDY: GREEN STAR - GREEN BUILDING COUNCIL AUSTRALIA Launched by Green Building Council of Australia (GBCA) in 2003, Green Star is Australia s largest voluntary and holistic sustainability rating system for buildings, fitouts and communities. As of June 2021, Green Star has issued 3,000 Green Star certifications, representing 44% of commercial business district office space, 20% of retail space, and more than 17,000 hectares of certified precincts. Green finance mechanisms, construction approvals, tenant requirements, and building owners use Green Star to demonstrate the delivery of green buildings. Ratings for new assets are awarded on a scale of 4 star (best practice), 5 star (national excellence), and 6 star (world leadership). In 2018, GBCA released a roadmap to decarbonise new buildings, fitouts, and communities by 2030. In addition to a wide-ranging advocacy platform in partnership with Australia’s property sector, the roadmap called for updating Green Star. The update, called Green Star Future Focus, outlined a set of decarbonisation requirements that would be introduced over the next decade for all buildings seeking a rating. The goal of the update was to create climate positive assets, or fossil fuel free, highly efficient buildings and communities powered by renewables, built with low upfront carbon emissions, with remaining emissions compensated by nature. Green Star Buildings, released in late 2020 was the first of the rating tools to introduce these requirements. Green Star Buildings aims to deliver healthy, resilient, and positive places for people and nature, built responsibly, and showcasing leadership. Key to the rating tool is delivering buildings that meet or exceed what is required to meet a 1.5 o C trajectory. To get a highly desired 6 star rating, any new building or major refurbishment using the new rating tool would need to be built to be climate positive. This requirement would then expand to cover 5 star rated buildings for those that register from 2023 and a 4 star rating from 2026. The requirement also applies to any building that is finished at or after January 2030. The introduction of these requirements over the next decade aims to ensure Australia can decarbonise new building construction. The targets, and the consensus around them, would serve to prepare industry, create knowledge, and identify best practice solutions to enable a future update to Australia’s National Construction Code. The update to Green Star serves as an example of how holistic rating tools, together with a wide advocacy agenda, can serve to transform the market and deliver the goals of the Advancing Net Zero program. jorge chapa, head of market transformation, green building council australiaWorldGBC Status Report 2021 What impact is the Net Zero Carbon Buildings Commitment having? The Net Zero Carbon Buildings Commitment (the Commitment) sets out a leadership position for stakeholders displaying appropriate ambition and action in tackling the climate emergency, and specifically the emissions resulting from the built environment and the assets over which they have direct control. The Commitment sets the direction of travel for the industry, providing a platform for championing leadership action in truly accounting for the emissions of projects being built today, whilst enabling the low carbon solutions for buildings of the future. To continue reflecting this industry leading position, WorldGBC will expand the scope of the Commitment to recognise leadership action in tackling embodied carbon emissions from the building and construction sector, and introduce requirements to consider whole life carbon, a key step in delivering our Whole Life Carbon Vision. To ensure the Commitment maintains its sector leading position on net zero buildings, the 2021 update will include a refinement of the existing requirements for addressing operational carbon, as well as the addition of requirements on embodied carbon, combining to outline a whole life carbon approach to sustainable development. This follows the targets and actions set out in Bringing Embodied Carbon Upfront in 2019 and promotes leadership action now. Our goal is to stimulate the supply chain solutions necessary, in order to prevent and mitigate embodied emissions, increase resource efficiency and stimulate the devel
