Green Buildings are not a new concept at all. Humans have been building homes with local materials such as mud, stone, wood, straw for thousands of years. Even the renewable energy from the sun, wind, and water can also be used. These days, this is becoming an obsession for everyone. But do you really know about the benefits of it?
4 benefits of green buildings
1. Green buildings can not only reduce or eliminate negative impacts on the environment, by using less water, energy or natural resources, but they can have a positive impact on the environment (at the building or city scales) by generating their own energy or increasing biodiversity.
2. These buildings offer a number of economic or financial benefits which include cost savings on utility bills for tenants or households (through energy and water efficiency); lower construction costs and higher property value for building developers; increased occupancy rates or operating costs for building owners; and job creation.
3. Green buildings have been shown to bring positive social impacts too. Many of these benefits are around the health and wellbeing of people who work in green offices or live in green homes.
4. Most of the new and improved green building materials last longer than the common conventional materials. Also, they are much thinner, lighter, and stronger to build with.
Eventually, I highly recommend you to consider building green. There are so many choices and materials to choose from.
After all, it’s our responsibility to support a sustainable environment one way or another. What do you say?
