Is it important that you know what the environmental, social, and economic dollar values are of your design, technology, policy, and investment decisions with respect to the building and community impacts created in the places where we live, learn, work, and play? Are you curious what generational wealth is created by other decisionmakers? And how about the resultant generational wealth distribution between the asset owner, the asset inhabitant, and the community in which the asset resides? All this information can be made fully transparent and available to anyone before decisions are made. What will you do differently when you have this knowledge?

If Gatekeepers don’t see the value, the deal doesn’t happen.

Every successful project relies on decision-makers who are responsible for evaluating risk, validating value, and determining what to move forward with. Whether they are lenders, appraisers, owners, regulators, or internal leadership teams, these stakeholders need clear, credible information to make informed decisions.

One of the challenges facing the built environment is that the benefits of high-performance buildings and sustainable design are often discussed in technical or environmental terms, but not always in ways that connect to financial performance, risk mitigation, and long-term asset value.

That's why USGBC Texas is partnering with P3i.global to help expand access to methodologies that translate environmental, social, and financial impacts into a common business language. P3I Analyses help organizations better communicate the full value of their projects, supporting more informed conversations among the stakeholders responsible for evaluating and approving investments.

When value is measurable, it becomes easier to understand, communicate, and act upon. How are you communicating the full value of your next project?

We’re excited to announce a new strategic partnership between USGBC Texas Chapter and P3I.GLOBAL. We bring together a nonprofit leader and a for-profit social enterprise to make the environmental, social, and financial value of better building and community decisions more visible and actionable.

We’re helping expand access to tools that show the dollar-value impacts of sustainability and resiliency strategies. Visit p3i.global/p3ianalyses/ for more details, and keep your eyes on EarthX in Dallas this week for more!

We welcome questions and feedback as this work develops, and encourage anyone with questions to reach out to us by email at [email protected].

Congressional efforts to undermine the federal protections provided by the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) are underway. Your business voice is needed to stand up for safer chemicals and products that benefit employees, customers, communities, the environment and our economy.

Why This Matters:
🌱 Customers want safer products.
🌱 Showing leadership builds consumer confidence and trust.
🌱 Strong chemical safety drives innovation.
🌱 Safer products benefit everyone.
🌱 The proposed revisions will have a negative economic impact.

We're proud to stand beside Earth Friendly Products , Seventh Generation , Naturepedic and Interfaith Center on Corporate Responsibility

Make a difference. Sign on to ask Congress to maintain protections under TSCA ➡️ https://asbnetwork.org/sign-on/business-sign-on-to-urge-congress-not-to-weaken-the-toxic-substances-control-act-tsca/
