Green Building

Green building also known as green construction or sustainable building. It is a way of enhancing the environment. It benefits humans, the community, and the environment in order to reduce resource consumption while enhancing quality of life. this ultimately results in reduction of greenhouse gases which will help to reduce greenhouse effect. this paper presents an overview of application of modern green infrastructure construction technology which makes a significant impact on conservation/proper utilization of resources like land, water, energy, air, material thereby reducing the overall cost of construction as well as adverse impacts of climate change. Green Building refers to a structure and using a process that is environmentally responsible and resource efficient throughout a building’s lifecycle. Since buildings consume nearly 50% of World’s Total Energy, Green Buildings, on the other hand, consume minimum amount of energy with the use of energy efficient materials. This paper can help readers to better understand the status quo and development trend of green building and to easier recognize the shortcomings in the development of green building, so as to provide a promising direction for future research.
