Green Building Materials For Modern Green Buildings In India
People are becoming increasingly aware of the environmental pollution that is threatening the existence of planet Earth. And accept the critical need to think of ways to be more eco-friendly.
And India is doing well in this aspect having the second-highest footprint of green buildings in the world. From a modest beginning of 20,000 square feet in 2001, the country now boasts of 1 billion square feet of green building area.
Here are few examples of eco friendly building materials in India that can help convert your building to a Green Eco-friendly structure:
Tank less water heater
Recycled material furniture
Digital thermostat
Geothermal heat pump
LED lights and more…
Installing some of these can be most useful for energy efficiency and keeping your surrounding environment clean and cool. Moreover, passive solar lighting techniques too help take advantage of natural illumination for interiors, and so reduce reliance on artificial lighting systems.
And though LED lights are more expensive initially, they are truly eco friendly as they use little energy. Unlike compact fluorescent lamps, they do not contain mercury and can be disposed properly.</summary>

<summary>What is the best thing about green building concepts?
Green buildings are ageless in the true sense!
Actually Green Homes or Eco-friendly houses are not a new concept. History is full of instances where ancient civilization used to get their residences lit by natural resources, besides capturing rainwater for irrigation. They used natural materials to the extent that their houses were heated and cooled without electricity!
Using non-toxic, healthy and organic materials like stone, mud, wood, grass etc. they built their homes. And in many regions across the world, people used large glass windows to light their homes without spending electricity and causing any harm to nature.
So Green Building Concept is creating structure and using processes that are mostly environmentally friendly. Where the rightful harnessing of large amounts of free energy ensure cutting down on serious wastage and helping maintain balance in surrounding environment.
Top Benefit of Green Building Concepts – Energy Conservation For Living in the Future
Green Building Concepts can have tremendous benefits, both tangible and intangible.
Tangible benefits being:
Energy savings upto 20 – 30 %
Water savings upto 30 – 50%
Intangible benefits being:
Enhanced air quality
Excellent day lighting
Health &amp; well being of the occupants
Conservation of scarce national resources
Enhancement of marketability for the project / resale
It is indeed needless to further stress the benefits of taking advantage of renewable resources e.g. active solar, passive solar, photo-voltaic techniques and reduced consumption of man-made energy. Use of renewable energy through solar power, wind power, hydro power, or biomass can significantly reduce the environmental impact of the building.
The Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED-INDIA) Green Building Rating System is a nationally and internationally accepted benchmark for the design, construction and operation of high performance green buildings.
