Studies show that consumption by buildings attributable to real estate development around the world is 30-40% per year. As much as 50% of minerals from natural resources is consumed by the construction industry. Real estate development produces around 33% of atmospheric CO2 while construction and building operations globally accounts for 40% of all energy consumption. This research report presents aspects of sustainable construction investment and real estate development (CIRED) and their interrelations during the period pre-, intra-, and post-COVID-19 and demonstrates a marked increase in the effectiveness of a CIRED analysis.
