The Advancing Net Zero (ANZ) project is developing a new call to action report setting out a global framework for voluntary demand, supply and policy actions for reducing embodied carbon emissions. As part of the extensive stakeholder engagement process involved in this work, a series of workshops are being conducted to discuss potential actions the sector can take. GBCs and key stakeholders from the private sector and from the Europe Regional Network have participated in workshops in London on 20 March and on 3 April in Brussels, respectively. The report will be launched in New York during World Green Building Week (23-29 September).
In recognition of the relevance of this initiative, and the work of the GBCs in their markets to address embodied emissions, the ANZ project has also welcomed three new GBCs from the Europe Regional Network: Norwegian GBC, GBC Italia and GBC Finland, now totalling 22 GBCs.
