The British Property Federation<\/a> (BPF) has announced that it is developing plans for a Net Zero Pledge that will unite its members in decarbonising the built environment and achieving net zero by 2050<\/h2>\n

The British Property Federation<\/a> (BPF) President has called for \u2018radical collaboration\u2019 across the property sector to accelerate information-sharing, learning and innovation; provide more support for smaller businesses, and tackle carbon emissions<\/a> from the built environment.<\/p>\n

The overall ambition is to achieve net zero<\/a> and it hopes that all members will sign up to the BPF Net Zero pledge by June 2023.<\/p>\n

Collaboration is key to decarbonising the built environment and achieving net zero<\/h3>\n

The BPF announcement was made at the UK Government Pavilion at MIPIM. The campaign has been designed to support all companies in the UK property sector, whether they are global institutions or just starting up. Smaller companies will be supported by connecting them with much bigger institutions.<\/p>\n

The BPF believes that the way to unite its members in decarbonising<\/a> the built environment and achieving net zero is by collaboration: sharing ideas, best-practice, real-time learnings. Only then can real estate acceleration\u00a0accelerate the pace of change and drive innovation.<\/p>\n

What does\u00a0the BPF Net Zero Pledge ask of its members?<\/h3>\n
