Preservation of nature and biodiversity
- Integrating biodiversity into all our activities in Europe;
- Integrate biodiversity into real estate projects and develop, share, promote a culture and know-how in this area within the real estate ecosystem;
- Working for sustainable real estate through biodiversity.
Biodiversity makes buildings more sustainable by creating economic, environmental and social value. So it's not a fad. This topic, at BNP Paribas Real Estate, has been driving us for many years, whether in our different lines of business or in the buildings we design, manage or occupy. Since 2016, we have made it an important part of our CSR policy, along with reducing carbon emissions or saving energy.

Preservation of nature and biodiversity
As we approach COP15 Biodiversity in China in 2021, BNP Paribas Real Estate is structuring its biodiversity strategy with a dedicated charter and operational roadmap to rethink nature in cities. The Biodiversity Charter of Commitments summarizes our commitments to biodiversity.
BNP Paribas Real Estate has developed a range of tools to integrate biodiversity into its operations. Solution catalogs and analysis grids are used to assess the ecological potential of an existing site or building, in order to establish an action plan to be followed. Performance indicators and goals have been designed and validated with our business teams to drive and measure our progress over time.
