STRIVING FOR ZERO EMISSIONS
AT GBPN, we’re not only working to reduce carbon emissions in the building sector, we’re aiming to transform the way we build.
Our goals are ambitious and that’s why we only work on projects that can have the highest impact over the long term.
Sustainable building practices and policy reform influence more than climate change; they also improve the health and well-being of residents in the fastest urbanising regions, and improve productivity, opportunity and the economy.
It’s why philanthropy across health, education, sustainability and renewables is also critical to our success.
We’re able to achieve this important work through a combination of funding, grants and philanthropic support by individuals who share our vision for a healthier, more sustainable world.
