Sustainable development is central to our business philosophy and company culture. To reinforce our commitment to the core of our business, we developed our SD 2030 strategy, which calls for us to be the leading sustainable development performer in our industry globally by 2030.
Our vision is to identify and manage the full spectrum of our environmental, social and economic impacts, and to integrate sustainable development into every facet of our business.
Our strategy is based on five strategic pillars: places, people, partners, performance (environment) and performance (economic). At the core of the SD 2030 Strategy are the places we are committed to develop and sustain with long-term place-keeping.
True long-term value creation depends upon the sustainable development of our business and the communities in which we operate.
Did you know that Brickell City Centre was constructed using materials with a high amount of recycled content? This helped reduce the demand for new materials and gave second life to ones that would have otherwise become waste. We can ensure a cleaner environment for our future, but only by practicing what we preach.
In 2021, a donation to One Tree Planted has led to 10,550 new Florida trees that, when fully mature, will reduce an annual 500,000+ pounds of CO2 in the air.
In 2021, we were proud to partner with Miami-Dade County, the City of Miami, and our Commissioners, alongside experts like Moffat & Nichol and the EDSA, in urging exploration of innovative, sustainable methods that will safeguard the City for future generations. The proposed solutions for a natural & hybrid infrastructure aimed to protect against potential dangers of natural disasters.
We recognize the importance of water conservation, which is why the Climate Ribbon at Brickell City Centre is not only used for the natural cooling of the BCC, but it also collects an estimated 3 Million gallons of rain water per year to be reused for landscaping and irrigation.
By reducing almost 2,000 pounds of carbon annually, the 40 trees donated to Museum Park from Brickell City Centre’s construction site are part of our commitment to a greener skyline.
As of 2022 and as part of our BE305 efforts, when annualized, electricity bills site-wide have been reduced by 3,168,951 kWh or by nearly 20% compared to 2019. Water consumption has also been reduced by 17% compared to 2019 YTD.
