Here’s What You Can Do Salesforce is a Net Zero company today, but we must work together to achieve the deep decarbonization that science tells us is needed. All businesses have a role to play in decarbonizing the built environments where we work. Because the circumstances of every business are different, there is not a one-size-fits-all approach for reducing building emissions. Instead, businesses should adapt their strategies to their specific needs. To do so, we recommend: If you are a building landlord: Z Develop a decarbonization plar Z Electrify existing buildings and construct only all-electric buildingW Z Prioritize existing building reusk Z If new construction can’t be avoided, prioritize low embodied carbon materials, such as mass timber If you are a building tenant: Z Choose buildings with low-carbon attributes (e.g., all-electric, low embodied carbon, renewable energy Z Include green leasing language in your leaseW Z Collaborate with your landlords to put new decarbonization projects in place If you have a remote workforce: Z Educate employees about how to increase energy efficiency by changing appliance settings, unplugging “energy vampires” like phone chargers that consume energy when not in use, and buying energy efficient applianceW Z Encourage employees to power their homes with renewable energy by buying it through the grid, installing on-site renewables, and/or participating in community solar initiatives where available It’s Time to Act The world is in a climate crisis. To avoid its worst impacts will require every facet of society to act boldly to create a sustainable future. In the built environment, the path to decarbonize is clear and achievable. Now, companies must make that path a reality. Learn more about Salesforce's Climate Action Plan 9 | Salesforce.com/sustainability
