Building industry logs into green agenda to cut emissions

Steel, being recyclable, is now seen as a greener alternative. So even during the winter ban on construction because of pollution, there is no ban on steel tube construction. (Representative image)

In the recent past, I have heard from different companies in the building sector announcing their contribution to the green movement. From the Indian Green Buildings Council (IGBC) with a 10.26 billion square feet green building footprint in India to tiles, cement and steel companies as well as developers and buildings information management systems providers, all have been announcing frontier breakthroughs. These range from reusing waste and scrap to reducing discharge and adopting faster and cleaner technologies to reduce emissions.
