The news today is filled with stories about climate change, and corporate America is making pledges to take action. Recently, Amazon announced it will reach the requirements of the Paris Agreement within 10 years. This means a considerable investment in all aspects of a business, including HVAC systems for commercial buildings. This creates an opportunity for both contractors and manufacturers.
“More and more organizations are making internal or external commitments to address climate change and other sustainability issues,” said Clay Nesler, vice president of global sustainability and regulatory affairs for Johnson Controls Inc. “There is increasing interest in providing comfortable, healthy and productive workspaces for employees, students, patients and customers.”
