JLL publishes 2021 Global Sustainability Report Report highlights progress and achievements in Climate action, Healthy spaces and Inclusive places CHICAGO , June 6, 2022 |PRNewswire| -- JLL (NYSE: JLL ) released its 2021 Global Sustainability Report today, providing comprehensive updates on the progress it is making across its own global operations, corporate supply chain, and with clients, to rapidly decarbonize cities and ensure the world''s real estate evolves and adapts in a sustainable way. The built environment accounts for 40% of total direct and indirect CO2 emissions. A significant majority of the world''s major cities have committed to requiring that all new buildings be net zero by 2030 and all buildings to be net zero by 2050. But, with approximately 80% of existing building stock set to still be standing in 2050, meeting this net-zero goal is a monumental challenge for the real estate sector. As the first real estate company in the world with a net-zero target validated by the Science Based Targets initiative, leading the way on sustainability is fundamental to JLL''s purpose to shape the future of real estate for a better world and to its future long-term growth strategy.
