The built environment has unique potential to be a catalyst for restoring and enhancing biodiversity. Ecogains' white paper identifies key actions that the construction and real estate sectors can implement to minimize their negative impact and maximize their positive role.
The report presents priority measures that the construction and real estate sector can implement, including:
- Responsible planning and ecological compensation
- Increased reuse and circular material choices
- Investments in nature-based solutions and green roofs
- Measuring negative and positive environmental impact
By implementing these measures and pushing for policy changes, the sector can reduce risks, strengthen property values, create new business opportunities, and help reverse the loss of nature by 2030.
