Green technology helps reduce energy and water consumption, reduces waste, reduces our carbon footprint, and improves business efficiency by lowering costs while improving the product design. Green architecture is a philosophy focused on designing buildings with the lowest possible negative impact on the surrounding environment by using sustainable materials and energy sources in construction. Going green not only makes the entire planet sustainable and habitable but also lets you know and understand the importance of going green. On the whole, it can be rightly said that going green can be highly beneficial for everyone as it can help you preserve the environment by adopting some proper practices. The science is clear: to avoid the worst impacts of climate change, emissions need to be reduced by almost half by 2030 and reach net-zero by 2050. To achieve this, we need to end our reliance on fossil fuels and invest in alternative sources of energy that are clean, accessible, affordable, sustainable, and reliable. The future of the sector looks bright since by 2026-27 the country's power generation installed capacity will close to 620 GW, of which 38 % will be from coal and 44% from renewable energy sources. Total Installed Capacity as on August 2022 was 405.8 GW of which 40.2% was generated from renewable sources. Sustainable energy, such as wind and solar energy, creates zero carbon emissions that can harm the atmosphere and contribute to global warming. It offsets the need for fossil fuels, which are actively increasing climate change and polluting our earth.

A lot of stuff actually.

Dear Ulrich Pont thank you for your contribution to the discussion.

The faster the acceleration in “green” technology, the greater the impetus to replace older, less-efficient models of everything. The more we replace everything, the greater the toll on Earth's finite resources, and the more junk we commit to the landfill.Green buildings are ideal for people who want to live or work in environment-friendly environments. Not only will green buildings help reduce the effects of climate change, but they will also create a "win-win" situation for construction firms and building owners. Choosing to become environmentally responsible is a top trigger for the demand for greener structures, presenting certain economic benefits. Green buildings are designed to reduce the overall impact of the built environment on human health and the natural environment by: Efficiently using energy, water, and other resources. Protecting occupant health and improving employee productivity. As the demand for more sustainable building options increases, green construction has become increasingly profitable and desirable within the global construction market. Green architecture or sustainable buildings are necessary as they reduce the use of water, energy, and other resources. This also reduces the waste produced while constructing these buildings, reducing pollution and improving a person's overall health. Green architecture, philosophy of architecture that advocates sustainable energy sources, the conservation of energy, the reuse and safety of building materials, and the sitting of a building with consideration of its impact on the environment. A green building has four main elements on which it is designed: materials, energy, water, and health to make these buildings more sustainable. Materials used for green buildings are obtained from natural and renewable sources. Green building technology uses advanced technologies to develop buildings with minimal impact on the environment throughout all lifecycle stages: from design, construction, operation, maintenance, renovation, to demolition. Green buildings are designed to reduce the overall impact of the built environment on human health and the natural environment by: Efficiently using energy, water, and other resources and protecting occupant health and improving employee productivity and reducing waste, pollution and environmental degradation.

Rational and efficient use of resources with the aim of providing healthy occupant spaces as well as safeguarding the environment.

I agree with Abbas Ibrahim Mu'Azu that there are many advantages of green technology includes: it is environmentally friendly that means no harmful emission to the air, does not require a lot of money for its operation, never run out because of its renewable technology, it helps to reduce CO2 emission in the air, it reduces global warming. With the rapid evolution of available technologies and the integration of them into the profession, the role of an architect is changing faster than it ever has before. There are immense opportunities for architects in the future. Architects will undoubtedly be required in the future, as the demand for designs, urban planning, architectural building, and property development will always outnumber the number of individuals available to do the same task. Green architecture, philosophy of architecture that advocates sustainable energy sources, the conservation of energy, the reuse and safety of building materials, and the siting of a building with consideration of its impact on the environment. The basic objectives of sustainability are to reduce consumption of non-renewable resources, minimize waste, and create healthy, productive environments. One of the greatest benefits of green buildings are their lower maintenance costs featuring specially-engineered design elements to lower energy consumption and help reduce energy cost and water bills for each occupant. These efficient structures can save corporate and residential owners a bundle. Green buildings and communities reduce landfill waste, enable alternative transportation use and encourage retention and creation of vegetated land areas and roofs. High-performing green buildings, particularly LEED-certified buildings, provide the means to reduce the climate impacts of buildings and their inhabitants.

Green architecture is a design and construction practice that seeks to minimize the negative environmental impacts of buildings while at the same time enhancing their positive effects. It is an approach that seeks to maximize the energy efficiency and environmental sustainability of buildings while creating an aesthetically pleasing and comfortable environment for occupants. The ultimate goals of green architecture are to reduce the overall environmental impact of buildings, increase their energy efficiency, create healthier indoor and outdoor spaces, and promote the use of renewable energy sources. The first goal of green architecture is to reduce the overall environmental impact of buildings, including reducing the amount of energy and water used, reducing the amount of waste generated, and increasing the use of recycled materials. Additionally, green architecture seeks to minimize the impact of building construction on the environment, such as by reducing the number of resources used in construction and the amount of pollution generated. The second goal of green architecture is to increase the energy efficiency of buildings; This includes incorporating energy-efficient materials, appliances, and lighting into the design of the building to reduce the amount of energy required to operate the building.

Moreover, green architecture seeks to maximize natural light and passive solar energy to reduce the need for electricity. The third goal of green architecture is to create healthier indoor and outdoor spaces, comprising includes

• improving air quality through natural ventilation,
• reducing the number of chemicals used in building materials and furnishings, and
• incorporating green spaces into the design of the building.

Additionally, green architecture seeks to incorporate noise reduction elements into the design of the building to reduce noise pollution. Finally, green architecture seeks to promote the use of renewable energy sources, involving incorporating solar panels, wind turbines, and other renewable energy sources into the design of the building to reduce the amount of energy required to operate the building.

Also, green architecture promotes sustainable materials in building construction, such as bamboo and sustainably harvested wood. The future of green architecture is promising. As technological advancements continue to increase the efficiency of green building materials and designs, more and more buildings will be constructed to meet the goals of green architecture.

Furthermore, as the public becomes increasingly aware of the environmental benefits of green architecture, more people will choose to invest in green building projects. Ultimately, green architecture will continue to be a significant factor in the design and construction of buildings in the future. The goals of green architecture are to reduce the overall environmental impact of buildings, increase their energy efficiency, create healthier indoor and outdoor spaces, and promote the use of renewable energy sources. The future of green architecture is promising as technological advancements continue to increase the efficiency of green building materials and designs, and more and more people have become aware of the environmental benefits of green architecture.

To adopt a climate friendly and a cleaner path than the one followed hitherto by others at corresponding level of economic development”. Green buildings are designed to reduce the overall impact of the built environment on human health and the natural environment by: Efficiently using energy, water, and other resources. Protecting occupant health and improving employee productivity and reducing waste, pollution and environmental degradation. Green architecture is a philosophy focused on designing buildings with the lowest possible negative impact on the surrounding environment by using sustainable materials and energy sources in construction. The green economy is geared to support sustainable consumption and production. An inclusive green economy is low-carbon, resource-conserving, diverse and circular. It embraces new models of economic development that address the challenge of creating prosperity within planetary boundaries. Green management is a paradigm that includes improving environmental awareness, using energy resources and eco-friendly technologies, reuse of wastes, and recycling activities starting from production activities of businesses to packaging and delivering to consumers. Green buildings typically incorporate superior air quality, abundant natural light, and access to views and noise control which benefits building occupants, making these building better places to work or live. A green building is one that uses less water, optimizes energy efficiency, conserves natural resources, generates less waste and provides healthier spaces for occupants, as compared to a conventional building. The tangible benefits may not be easily recognizable to tenants or visitors, but through sustainable design, construction and operations green buildings are reducing carbon emissions, energy and waste; conserving water; prioritizing safer materials; and lowering our exposure to toxins. Pillars of sustainable architecture include the efficient and moderate use of materials, energy, developmental space, etc. These include practices such as using renewable materials, rainwater conservation, producing renewable energy in the building, incorporating local plants and nature, etc

From an aesthetic point of view, the role of architects is now to find new technological solutions and a design language that can culturally express this philosophy.

In my opinion, there are two main goals:

1- To Minimize the negative impact of the built environment on the natural environment

2- To maximize the efficiency in the use of resources (Materials, Water, Energy,...)

The role of architects is to achieve an equilibrium between environmental protection and human needs such as social equality and affordable solutions.

Architecture has the power to address poverty, overcrowding, and land degradation with tactics in a definite way. New architectural technology will enable humans to survive on Earth for decades to come. Structures of tomorrow will be built with innovative materials. The value of property will increase and save money on energy bills and have a healthier, happier work environment can also attract higher-quality tenants. Green buildings are ideal for people who want to live or work in environment-friendly environments. Green buildings are designed to reduce the overall impact of the built environment on human health and the natural environment by: Efficiently using energy, water, and other resources protecting occupant health and improving employee productivity and reducing waste, pollution and environmental degradation. Architects will undoubtedly be required in the future, as the demand for designs, urban planning, architectural building, and property development will always outnumber the number of individuals available to do the same task. It is architects that will enable society to make real progress towards sustainable living. Through clever design and new systems, they will work out how best to integrate alternative energy, energy efficiency, recycling, waste reduction, water management and more into our homes and workplaces. Reducing energy consumption is one of the biggest goals of green architecture, so it follows that these types of constructions will often include a power source that runs on renewable energy. Green productivity uses a set of management tools, techniques and technologies to encourage innovation and a continuous cycle of productivity gains

Its goals are

sustainability (Renewable energy, water, green bldg.materials, Indoor Air Quality, Recycling and reusing)

balanced ecology, and

health welfare of the current and future generations through clean environment.

As an engineer with a keen interest in environmental sustainability, I cannot overemphasize the importance of designing and executing projects that align with the goals of green architecture. The world is grappling with unprecedented environmental challenges that can have disastrous consequences if not checked.

Green architecture is an innovative approach to building design and construction that strives to reduce the harmful impact of buildings on the environment. The ultimate goal of green architecture is to create a harmonious and sustainable relationship between buildings and the natural environment.

One of the critical aims of green architecture is the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions that result from the production and use of building materials. Over 40% of the world's carbon dioxide emissions come from buildings. This shows how important it is to use sustainable design and construction methods that have the least amount of negative effects on the environment.

Another key goal of green architecture is the conservation of natural resources. Sustainable building materials and technologies, such as green roofs and solar panels, can help minimize the consumption of non-renewable resources such as fossil fuels.

Special thanks to RK Naresh for his valuable contribution. I would like to add that it is very important to reuse the materials of the old bulidings whenever possible - because of the tota
