Green Buildings are Impossible
The concept of Green Buildings envision is a new approach to save water, energy and material resources in the construction and maintenance of the buildings and can reduce or eliminate the adverse impact of buildings on the environment and occupants. Getting conscious about the environment after feeling the environmental responsibilities, the way people try to address this problem is wonderful. One of the intelligent initiatives is the concept of “Green Buildings”.
One of the contractors from Chennai, Hafeez, evoked reactions ranging from disapproval to instant support. His audience cheered him on, but fellow panelist and winner of a US Green Building Council award Karan Grover insisted that India needed to customize green standards for its needs rather than reject them outright.
Hafeez introduced apartment owners to classical kitsch. “I firmly believe this talk of ‘green’ buildings is a joke. He justified reporting, rating agencies give points on carpets and urinals which do not require water – it is a very narrow view of this problem. What about the land on which it is built, whether it’s farmland or not? What about the forests which will be removed for creating new farmlands? Who will recreate forests? “Contractor told a gathering of architects from across Asia at a discussion in Chennai on Monday.” Land is a precious resource and it cannot be produced. So we must focus on how we can provide accommodation without affecting the intended primary use of that land.”
