Reducing operating costs, enhancing asset value and profits, improving employee productivity and satisfaction and optimizing life-cycle economic performance are just few of the economic benefits of the Green Buildings. Worldwide estimates show that buildings and the building industry are responsible for up to 40% of the global release of greenhouse gases. Clearly, the built environment has a profound impact on our natural environment, economy, health and productivity. Great news is that breakthroughs in building science, technology and operations are available to designers, builders and owners who want to build green and maximize both economic and environmental performance.
Hear from Hong Kong's leading industry players about how green building technology is changing the landscape of construction and property development projects, the Green Building future of Hong Kong and how we could benefit from all the changes in building green.
