Testimonials

Conor Storkey, Director of Sustainability, Brookfield Properties

“It’s impossible to reach Net Zero without a skilled, diverse workforce!”

“One of our sector’s biggest roadblocks to tackling carbon change is a lack of skilled workers across the whole project life cycle”.

“Sustainability within the workplace can be achieved in many ways, including the introduction of policies and smart controls to reduce energy use, improving fresh air supply & ventilation, and maximizing the use of biophilia, ergonomic furniture and recycling facilities. A focus on reducing carbon emissions during refurbishment of tenant fit-outs is also important, including the imaginative re-purposing and upcycling of existing elements, such as the re-use of raised access flooring or upgrading existing light fittings rather than replacing them entirely.”

“Brookfield Properties’ Accelerate ESG initiative provides the platform for enhanced tenant collaboration, including education and the sharing of best practice to help reduce carbon emissions, achieve our mutual ESG goals and maximise the benefits for their employees and the wider community.”
