Decarbonisation of buildings in the construction sector has slowed globally, leaving it as a major source of emissions and increasingly vulnerable to climate impacts and energy price shocks.
This is according to a new report from the UN Environment Programme (UNEP) and the Global Alliance for Buildings and Construction (GlobalABC).
The tenth edition of the Global Status Report for Buildings and Construction (2025-2026) assesses progress across the sector using seven key indicators covering policies, finance, technologies, and investment aligned with global commitments towards a 2050 net-zero emissions pathway.
