As announced in Glasgow, Scotland, at the 26th Conference of the Parties (COP26) organized by the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), the Dream group of companies are committed to achieving net zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2050 or sooner, in line with global efforts to limit warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius.

The NZAM initiative is an international group of the largest asset managers, covering over US$57.4 trillion in AUM. The Dream group of companies are proud to publicly commit to set targets, disclose progress and support the global effort of net zero GHG emissions by 2050.

“We are excited to be joining this group of global leaders and committing to net zero by 2050. With our net zero communities in Ottawa and Colorado, we have already started this journey and we are going to challenge ourselves to do more. We want our investors, tenants and various stakeholders to know that Dream is working to contribute to the future solutions that are needed,” said Michael Cooper, Chief Responsible Officer for Dream Unlimited Corp.

As an official signatory to the United Nation Principles for Responsible Investment (UN PRI), Dream Unlimited, on behalf of the Dream group of companies will be reporting to NZAM. The Dream group of companies will annually disclose their adherence to the six UN PRI responsible investment principles.

The Dream group of companies will be releasing their corporate Sustainability Report before the end of the year, which will further outline the net zero commitments and future plans.
