HIGHLY COMMENDED: Land Securities
PROJECT: Resource Efficiency Programme
The Project
Land Securities recognises the significant global challenge from climate change, and the responsibility of the built environment which accounts for over one third of the developed world’s CO2 emissions. As the largest listed commercial property company in the UK, we have a responsibility to lead the way. Following the climate agreement reached at Paris in December 2015, we have established a new resource efficiency programme, supported by ambitious carbon, energy and waste reduction targets. The programme has been integrated across all areas of operations – acquisitions, new developments, and property management; and is supported by an employee sustainability training programme.
