Overview
Climate contracting integrates decarbonisation and sustainability goals into legal agreements, aiming to reduce carbon emissions and minimising environmental impacts in the built environment. By embedding sustainability clauses into contracts and fostering collaboration across the entire value chain, organisations can effectively lower their carbon footprints.
Greener built environment deals help support a sustainable, low-carbon future for the sector through pre-contract processes, whole-life carbon assessments, and collaboration between legal, procurement, sustainability and deal teams.
Our panel will discuss:
- An introduction to climate contracting
- The importance of including decarbonisation targets in legal contracts
- Common challenges, pitfalls, and barriers
- How contracts can help meet regulatory requirements
- The role of contracts in RICS Whole Life Carbon Assessment
- Case studies and examples of organisations using effective climate contracting
