Canary Wharf London

Sustainability

Sustainability is more than buildings, it’s about the spaces in between, how we nurture communities and deliver an extraordinary environment. We know that this cannot be delivered in isolation, and we work with our partners to collaborate, learn and grow.

The wild, wild east

We take our custodianship of the waterways seriously.
Through our innovative partnership with the Eden Project, we're restoring natural biodiversity to Canary Wharf - including revitalising habitats and connecting people with nature.

We’re proving that urban areas can support biodiversity, help people foster a deeper connection with nature and be part of the climate solution.

All creatures great and small

We’ve doubled the number of animal and plant species in Canary Wharf. This includes 37 migrant bird species, 5 bat species, a variety of fish and insects, and more than 800 species of plants.

A positive environment

Every decision has an impact and we aim to always make responsible ones - putting climate -change at the centre of our decisions and looking at what's best for our environment.

We save our old coffee grounds to be transformed into fertiliser and biofuel. And our spectacular 'Whale on the Wharf' four storey sculpture is made from plastic collected from beaches in Hawaii.

Roofgarden

Woody wonderful

We use natural materials – like timber – in our construction including our Wood Wharf and Crossrail Place Roof Garden developments. All our wood comes from FSC Certified sustainable forests.

Going green for good

Sustainability is woven into everything we do as we continue on our net zero journey. We remain committed to working in partnership with our customers and suppliers, helping them achieve their own sustainability goals too.
