Moving the Needle Toward a Sustainable Future
Five Key Drivers
Climate change is the most vexing and existential challenge of our time. Incredible advances in climate technology combined with widespread recognition of climate change and a radical shift in corporate and governmental behaviors are propelling the mass adoption of climate-saving solutions.
THE AGE OF ADOPTION
Climate Action & Energy Reform
With the unified and rapid adoption of decarbonization technologies, we will not realize global emission reduction goals. Our planet is on pace to experience a rise in global temperature of 1.7°C to 2.4°C, a catastrophic outcome with many negative implications. To limit global warming to 1.5°C, mature economies will need to accelerate their annual emissions decline by 8 to 9 times compared to efforts in the last 10 years.
THE AGE OF ADOPTION
A Sustainable Built Environment
A growing awareness of real estate’s outsized contribution to emissions has spurred a focus on ESG and decarbonization. Public pressure, rising utility prices, supply chain disruption, regulatory frameworks that fine emissions violators and inflationary material costs have incentivized industry stakeholders to adopt sustainable solutions.
THE AGE OF ADOPTION
Transportation Equity and Resilience
Transportation accounts for the largest fraction of greenhouse gas emissions in the United States. Advancements in energy storage along with federal incentives for commercial and consumer EV adoption have spurred fleet electrification for rural and urban transportation.
THE AGE OF ADOPTION
Public Health
The healthcare sector is adopting sustainable business practices at a record rate. From increasing access to quality care to reducing the industry’s carbon footprint, adopting innovative solutions has advanced healthcare’s environmental sustainability, social responsibility, and principled business practices. But we have just scratched the surface. The real strides lie ahead, with healthcare as a breakout leader in the Age of Adoption.
