COMMUNITIES OF OPPORTUNITY: CATEGORIES OF IMPACT
Green Initiatives
Our green initiatives within our communities bring practical solutions to our residents, enabling healthy and “green” lifestyles.
To uphold this commitment, our talented team works to implement green building standards and develop transit-oriented projects that are resource efficient. We conduct energy audits and track, measure and report on our performance to provide transparency and ensure our properties are performing optimally.
Sustainability practices are integrated into building operations to enhance the health and well-being of residents, increase engagement and improve building environmental performance. We also provide tenants with tools to conserve resources and improve waste diversion through recycling and composting.
Through conservation measures, renewable energy generation and green building certifications, we look for creative and holistic ways to reduce our impact on the environment. Our climate mitigation goals are:
- Reduce energy intensity by 20%
- Reduce Greenhouse Gas Emissions by 20%
- Reduce water intensity by 15%
- Increase the amount of waste diverted from landfills by 15%
