PROGRESS IN CLIMATE PLEDGES Section 4 There are 3,470 companies across the globe that have made climate pledges. Those companies add up to 80% of the world's GDP. So you can imagine the impact that those companies collectively have on global emissions and what the impact could be if they all reach net zero. The pressure is coming from all sides for these companies. Many of our investment funds today are putting financial pressure on companies that haven't made these pledges. 73% of investors say that efforts to improve the environment and society actually do impact their financial decisions. Next, I want to talk about the impact quotient, That's a great example. of how customers today are voting with their values. 77% of customers say that they're motivated to purchase from companies that are trying to do good in this world. It is worth mentioning regulators are also starting to tighten controls and reporting. Basically meaning that mandated reporting on sustainability issues is becoming more coommon And then last employees, employees want to work for companies that are doing good. 93% of employees say companies should lead with purpose. At Microsoft, we have 8,000 employees in our sustainability community alone.
SUSTAINABLE Future WORKPLACES Section 5 By: Dr. Sanjay Rishi I'm fortunate to be here to share some ideas on a topic that I'm very passionate about, and that passion will come out, so you might have to excuse me. The workplace has really changed. If you think about what the pandemic did with all the devastation that it caused, we're a resilient species and we have emerged from the pandemic. It’s with that, that the shadows of the pandemic and the opportunities that are emerging from the pandemic, and the lessons learned will really impact how we think about work, workplace workspaces, and workers. There are fundamental significant tectonic shifts that are happening in each one of those, some of the things that I'll touch on and more details around is as the shift, the idea of hybrid the idea of technology, and sustainability responsibility. One of the things we did with Joint Indication Indicators (Jll) about two years ago, as we said in our purpose statement, we put in a better world and we said we want our domain and our responsibility to create a better world. Well, that better world has many implications. It's around many of the things we address in this magazine like mental health, physical health, sustainability, diversity, equity, and inclusion. The way I group them around works that is; personalized work, which is responsible, and workspaces that are responsible Well, let's go exactly into those. When you talk about something like sustainability, there's an enormous impact on everything you're doing in the workplace. From a sustainability standpoint, I'll start with the example of the leaps and bounds we've come at Davos in 2020, in February just before the pandemic hit. There, you could see CEOs across the globe all making commitments around net zero carbon neutrality. One of the things that we're seeing is while those commitments were made, the question that I always ask when I'm with C suites and colleagues is- let's test and make sure that the road maps are implemented, that there are details around it that are getting the attention because there's so much going One of the things that we're seeing is while those commitments were made, the question that I always ask when I'm with C suites and colleagues is- let's test and make sure that the road maps are implemented, that there are details around it that are getting the attention because there's so much going on. There are macroeconomic headwinds, that are clearly impacting us. A little statistics for the audience, 40% of the planet's carbon emissions come from built environments. We live in them, we work in them, we shop in them, we travel to airports, 40% comes from that, that's our business, that's my business to influence that. So, if we can influence it in partnership with everyone, this is no longer a debate. This is something that has to be done. And more importantly, the commitment to sustainability is real. It's happening across the globe. So, we're on a good path but we need partnerships like these to bring down that 40% statistic. on. 6
