Climate change is the defining issue of our time and to solve it requires immense collaboration and innovation. The landmark Paris Agreement saw the biggest universal commitment from world leaders to limit global warming to well below 2.0C in pursuit of efforts that limits it to 1.50C. Its aim is for global net zero emissions, where the amount of greenhouse gases (GHG) emitted equals the amount removed from the atmosphere. The UK Government has made a commitment to net zero by 2050, and since then has been setting ambitious plans for industry and rallying businesses for support.
Tackling climate change is the responsibility of every business and we must all play a part in managing our GHG emissions. That’s why Knight Frank is joining the global race to net-zero, committing to achieve net zero by 2030 globally, with the UK striving for a target of 2027.
