BETTER FOR OUR PLANET

At Cushman & Wakefield, we have set ambitious targets that put us on the path to net-zero carbon emissions across our company and value chain by 2050. To achieve this, we are pursuing a range of initiatives that span from upgrading the sustainability credentials of the buildings we occupy and manage, to leveraging technology that increases the scope and accuracy of our data.

In this section:

• Our Approach • 2023 Performance by Target • Waste and Water

• Environmental Management • Climate Risk and Resilience • Stories of Progress

We made progress 7 on our science-based targets in 2023, which include:

> A 43% reduction in total Scope 1 and 2 (market-based) GHG emissions since 2019 > A 68% reduction in total Scope 1 and 2 (market-based) office emissions per thousand square feet of office space since 2019 > Sourced 58% of electricity for our operations in 2023 from renewable sources > Observed a 52% reduction in entire value chain emissions from our 2019 baseline

In 2023, we conducted a climate-risk assessment of the risks and opportunities we face. A summary of our findings is included in this report .
