Following SDG 13, to “take urgent action to combat climate change and its

impacts,” we are striving to measure and reduce our GHG emissions, and to

help our clients and industry do the same.

Responsible for 13% of emissions in 2021, the building

sector continued to be the third biggest GHG emitter in

Canada, after the transportation and oil and gas sectors.

Faced with this striking statistic, we felt it was paramount

to mobilize the entire construction industry in Canada to

f ind solutions that respond to the scope of the climate

change challenge. The industry has an important role to

play in the economic transition to a low-carbon future and

it is with this goal that major players are taking action to

decarbonize their activities.

Assess the value of a project based

on its carbon footprint

Our sciencebased plan seeks to signif icantly reduce our

own emissions Scope 1 and Scope 2 and to transform

our value chain Scope 3 as a means of structuring and

prioritizing our actions and focussing on those that will

have more impact

Our plan is based on three guiding principles

Our plan to f ight

climate change

Accelerate the transition to a lowcarbon economy

Reduce our GHG emissions by decarbonizing

ouroperations

Enable our clients and partners to transition

to a lowcarbon economy

Our aim is to align our reporting with the recommendations

made by the Task Force on ClimateRelated Financial
