GREEN ARCHITECTURE

The topic of sustainability has recently drawn interest from many different academic fields. The
implementation of sustainable development is the cause of this popularity. The theory, science, and
fashion of structures designed and built in line with ecologically friendly principles is known as the
concept of green architecture, sometimes known as "sustainable architecture" or "green building." In
addition to reducing the amount of resources used in the building's construction, usage, and operation,
green architecture aims to lessen the damage that its constituent parts cause to the environment through
emissions, pollution, and waste. Green architecture is an architectural concept that supports renewable
energy sources, energy efficiency, the safe reuse of building materials, and the location of structures
while taking the environment into account.

Buildings consume a lot of energy, water, new materials, and trash that has an adverse impact on the
environment and human health to design, build, operate, and maintain. It is necessary to introduce,
clarify, comprehend, and put into practice "green building systems" in order to reduce these consequences
and construct environmentally sound and resource-efficient buildings.

A building should be constructed with the environment in mind by employing sustainable energy sources,
designing buildings effectively to consume less energy, and modernizing older structures with new
technologies.By generating more environmentally friendly ways for humans to live on this world, green
architecture reduces the negative effects of humanity. This style of building does not require giving up all
the modern conveniences we take for granted. It entails embracing cutting-edge technology that are
increasingly available.
