Global Real Estate Sustainability Benchmark
Green Canary provides GRESB services and tools to provide assessments that can be used by businesses to compare their performance to industry standards, advise on best practices, and improve their ESG performance to stand out in the market.
Green Canary and GRESB
As sustainability consultants, we provide a holistic approach that utilizes synergies between sustainability, health and wellness goals with ESG goals.
Corporate sustainability and environmental, social, and governance strategies are becoming an expectation, and Green Canary’s team helps push the envelope integrating resiliency, wellness and carbon accounting that keep your business ahead of the curve. It’s long-term planning with immediate value in mind to create corporate goals that exceed targets as a natural by-product of best practices. Transparency from within and down the supply chain creates systemic changes, and our Green Canary software automates that process unlike anything in the market today. We look through a triple-bottom lens from the organizational level through operations down to facility management.
