Malls were amongst the hardest hit retail sectors during the peak of the pandemic. Traditional indoor malls were closed due to stay-at-home orders, and rent collections from tenants seized entirely. Anchor tenants, such as JCPenney and Nieman Marcus, filed for bankruptcy and permanently closed many stores, according to a report by CNN. Additionally, bankruptcies by major mall operators, including Washington Prime Group and CBL Properties, each of which operate more than 100 malls, negatively impacted the sector. That said, malls are bouncing back far quicker than anyone expected.

Residential properties are responsible for roughly 17-21% of energy-related carbon emissions globally, reports the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC). That figure covers everything from the electricity we use to power televisions and other electronic devices, as well as the fuel we use to heat water and cook. Take into account the carbon emissions released in the manufacture of concrete, metal and other building materials along with the construction process itself, and it’s clear that housing has a considerable role to play if the world is to meet its ambition to reduce global carbon emissions to net zero by 2050.
