Contributed by BSM Staff

WASHINGTON – BOMA International, the trade association for the commercial real estate industry, has been recognized for its successful Carbon Reduction initiative.

BOMA earned a prestigious Power of Associations Gold Award from the American Society of Association Executives (ASAE) for its successful effort.

BOMA International's award-winning Carbon Reduction program consists of thousands of buildings and continues to grow. All buildings that enter the program pledge to track their portfolio's carbon output using data analytics implemented by BOMA International. Once this data is provided, they are encouraged to visit the Decarbonization Resource Center which provides numerous avenues of carbon reduction for buildings of all classes and sizes.

"Congratulations to BOMA International for exemplifying the impact associations have on the industries and professions they represent, and on society at large," said ASAE President and CEO Michelle Mason, FASAE, CAE. "It's always so incredibly satisfying to see associations going above and beyond their everyday mission to change the world. We're very proud to spotlight this award-winning initiative."

"The BOMA International Advocacy team is incredibly honored to receive this award," said BOMA International Vice President of Advocacy & Building Codes Don Davis, Esq. "Our Carbon Reduction Program is exemplary of how powerful the BOMA network is. By pulling together BOMA members across the country, and now the globe as we move to include international affiliates, we are able to make a considerable impact on the built environment's carbon footprint."
