In the face of a rapidly changing climate, the global push for decarbonization has never been more urgent. The stakes are high as industries and governments grapple with the challenges of reducing carbon emissions. Reports indicating a $10 trillion investment need in our built environment over the next decade highlight the magnitude of this transformation.
