In reaction to the energy crisis and people’s growing environmental concerns, the idea of a green building was created.An environmental and resource-conscious approach was taken in the design, construction, renovation, operation or even in the reuse of a building which is sometimes referred to as a sustainable building. It offers high-quality but reasonably priced housing, an independent electrification system powered by non-fuel-based technology, access to clean drinking water as well as water for irrigation.
By using less water, energy, and other natural resources, such as eco-friendly materials, and renewable energy sources, green buildings help lessen the negative effects on the environment. Green villages also cut down on emissions and other waste. The green-building industry has the greatest potential to make a difference in achieving significant reductions among the major contributors to greenhouse gas emissions.
Now that you know about the green building / village, have you ever wondered “why is it important to have and live in a green village area or environment?” In the fight against climate change, green buildings or villages are essential. Why? The advantages of green buildings for energy savings are now generally acknowledged. These structures consume less natural resources including electricity, water, and materials. In some instances, they can boost biodiversity, generate their own energy, and lessen the impact of urban heat islands.
Moreover it can improve the current ecosystem and safeguard existing natural areas. Green buildings tend not to be located in environmentally sensitive regions. When building on or next to green places, precautions are made to lessen the influence on the surrounding environment. Green buildings are frequently built on previously developed land, with steps taken to restore plant life to building sites by reducing the amount of site space used for parking or by using green roofs, which offer a more environmentally friendly roofing system than traditional roofing materials.
Talking about the ‘green’, this initiative will surely have the benefits towards the environment. It is able to reduce emissions to air. According to Rutgers, by using less energy, the proper refrigerants, using materials with low off-gassing, and other methods, green buildings successfully reduce air pollution. Lower contributions to air pollution are made at the construction site as a result of the use of less fossil fuels, whereas lower air pollution from power plants is caused by the use of less energy.
So now, let’s think of how to sustain the green environment through the initiatives of this green building / village? Maintaining sustainable development involves striking a delicate balance between human needs for bettering livelihoods and wellbeing on the one hand, and protecting the natural resources and ecosystems that we and future generations depend on on the other.
The green building or village are intentionally being made as it may reduce the pollution and land development impacts. It is because the area is using resources like water, electricity, and other things more wisely and it has all been taken and produced through natural resources such as renewable energy. Other than that, the green building / village is able to sustain the clean and healthier environment because the area is able to minimise negative environmental impacts by promoting and rewarding rising levels of self-sufficiency using renewable technologies. This can easily be concluded that it has the ability to generally reduce overall impact to the environment.
As the benefits of the green building / village had been stated above, Doren aims to achieve it by using the mechanisms that promote productivity, excellent health, and a comfortable environment. Doren supports efficient equipment that is eco-friendly and suitable to be used in the housing and also in the industrial area.
