Throughout the world, there is an increasing demand on diminishing
natural resources in the industrial, transport, commercial, and
residential sectors. Of these, the residential sector uses the most
energy on such needs as lighting, water heating, air conditioning,
space heating, and refrigeration. This sector alone consumes
one-third of the total primary energy resources available. By using
green building and smart automation techniques, this demand for
energy resources can be lowered. Green Building Management and
Smart Automation is an essential scholarly publication that
provides an in-depth analysis of design technologies for green
building and highlights the smart automation technologies that help
in energy conservation, along with various performance metrics that
are necessary to facilitate a building to be known as a ""Green
Smart Building."" Featuring a range of topics such as environmental
quality, energy management, and big data analytics, this book is
ideal for researchers, engineers, policymakers, government
officials, architects, and students.
Imagine a world where Wellington boots come with a 24-page
instruction manual, or council carers who are prohibited from
making tea for OAPs in case they scald themselves on the job.
Welcome to Britain in the 21st century, where the Jobsworths now
lords it large, issuing edicts of mind-boggling stupidity that ruin
the quality of people's lives all in the name of 'elf n safety'.
Journalist Alan Pearce has compiled the most outrageous and
hilarious (and unfortunately all true) examples. They will make you
cringe whilst crying with laughter. Read about the author who was
banned from selling his book in case it caused paper cuts; the
swings removed from a playground in case children were blinded by
the sun while playing on them; an international cycle race banned
after worries about urinating cyclists; the risk assessment needed
before a local village hall could sell mince pies. You couldn't
make it up!
