新世界发展（“NWD”或“公司”）致力于为1.5°C的商业雄心为1.5°C，全球呼吁来自联合国的行动，以及在巴黎协定下的气候变化减缓的业务领导者。

NWD是全球14家房地产公司之一，亚洲的第三次，致力于设定基于科学的目标（SBT），这有助于将全球变暖限制为1.5°C。SBT提供了具有明确界定途径的公司，可以减少排放的符合巴黎协议目标，旨在减轻气候变化和未来事务的最严重影响。

The commitment, which covers the Company’s major properties and construction activities in Hong Kong and mainland China, is in line with New World Group’s continued focus on building sustainable communities via New World Sustainability Vision 2030 (SV2030), a long-term strategy that references the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs) with four pillars: Green, Wellness, Smart and Caring.

阿德里安成，董事长兼首席执行官和NWD据说，“我们呼吁全球更多的组织加入我们这一旅程以减少碳足迹，保护环境并为所有利益相关者创造共同价值。”

“从历史上看，房地产业对全球碳排放产生了重大贡献，该碳排放具有催化的气候变化。在行业领导者上竞争加快气候变化的努力，即现在是更居住的未来的行业领导者。事实上，我敦促该行业不仅将此视为叫醒，而且实际上是重新思考我们开发的方式和更可持续的方法。应对气候行动是我们对下一代的责任，也是商业机会。我们对SBT的大胆承诺将通过2050年和中国大陆的碳中立目标支持香港净零碳的计划到2060年。“

对气候变化采取行动并不是NWD的新手。自2018年以来，该公司一直致力于SV2030，该公司的目标是对不同业务单位的2015财年的水平对能源和碳排放强度的环境影响。It is also a leader in building globally renowned certified green buildings such as Victoria Dockside and K11 ATELIER King’s Road in Hong Kong, being an early supporter of the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD), and establishing Impact Kommons, Asia’s first startup accelerator focused on the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UNSDGs). The latest commitment to Business Ambition for 1.5°C steers the company to further decarbonise its operation and additionally focus on setting targets in 2023 to reduce both direct and indirect emissions by 2030.

Ellie Tang，NWD的可持续发展负责人据说，“致力于1.5°C的商业野心是一个令人兴奋的里程碑，可以加快我们可持续的建筑努力，并回应全球呼吁即将发生迫在眉睫的气候行动。它发出明确的信号，即新的世界集团将其业务成功与积极影响人员和地球的积极影响。像往常一样的业务不足以解决气候风险：我们必须采用全球最佳脱碳实践，并与我们的业务合作伙伴合作，以减少全球变暖的影响。“

展望未来，该公司在气候行动中看到了商业机会，例如，在全球认可和可持续融资方面。NWD maintained its five-star (highest) rating in the Global Real Estate Sustainability Benchmark (GRESB) in 2019 and 2020 and was rated first globally for climate resilience disclosure in 2020. It also recently became the world’s first real estate developer to issue a USD Sustainability-Linked Bond (SLB), with a target to power its rental properties in the Greater Bay Area of China by 100% renewable energy by 2026 which forms part of the Company’s greater commitment of using 100% renewable energy for all Greater China rental properties by 2031.
