The book reveals how green buildings are currently being adapted
and applied in developing countries. It includes the major
developing countries such as China, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand,
Pakistan, Cambodia, Ghana, Nigeria and countries from the Middle
East and gathers the insights of respected green building
researchers from these areas to map out the developing world's
green building revolution. The book highlights these countries'
contribution to tackling climate change, emphasising the green
building benefits and the research behind them. The contributing
authors explore how the green building revolution has spread to
developing countries and how national governments have initiated
their own green building policies and agendas. They also explore
how the market has echoed the green building policy, and how a
business case for green buildings has been established. In turn,
they show how an international set of green building standards, in
the form of various techniques and tools, has been incorporated
into local building and construction practices. In closing, they
demonstrate how the developing world is emerging as a key player
for addressing the energy and environmental problems currently
facing the world. The book helps developers, designers and
policy-makers in governments and green building stakeholders to
make better decisions on the basis of global and local conditions.
It is also of interest to engineers, designers, facility managers
and researchers, as it provides a holistic picture of how the
industry is responding to the worldwide call for greener and more
sustainable buildings.
