Sustainable Development and Green
Building is the future of developing, designing, renovating and construction
buildings; it is all about reducing the resources needed to build, maintain, and
occupy a building. A green building lowers both environmental impacts and
costs by using specifically selected materials, and through built-in energy and
water-use efficiencies. Green buildings avoid toxic materials and are
designed to minimize construction debris and indoor pollutants.
The payoffs accrue to both the
planet and the owner. Green building is part of a move towards a more
sustainable economy; for the owners, more efficient, longer-lasting materials
may add about 2 percent to the project's total cost but will save 20 percent of
the capital cost over 20 years. That's a pretty good return, and it will
only get better as energy costs rise. The better indoor air quality of a
green building can offer significant health benefits, too.
