Sustainable Construction Practices: A Greener Future
Presently, the increase in sustainability is evident, whereby people are becoming aware that they can improve their lives while protecting the environment and conserving natural resources for future generations through sustainability practices. The imperative of sustainability is not confined to individual industries but extends across many sectors. The sector that plays a significant role in this regard is construction. People realize how they build today impacts the surroundings today and in the future; thus, many construction processes integrate green practices into the practice as they work towards building a greener future.
Sustainable construction is based on building rooms that aim to improve the lives of current and succeeding generations—considering how human health is a priority in construction, from the choice of materials to the designs of buildings and urban spaces. Such components include sufficient natural light provision, enhancing indoor air quality, and designing the environment to promote good physical and mental well-being (Udomsap & Hallinger, 2020).
The construction industry has usually been associated with high levels of environmental degradation, including depletion of natural resources, destruction of habitats, and pollution. These negative impacts can be reduced by using eco-friendly materials in sustainable construction practices, reusing wastes, and implementing energy-efficient technologies. With this intent, the construction endeavors intend to reduce carbon footprints, preserve biodiversity, and safeguard ecosystems, contributing to the global fight against climate and environmental deterioration (Udomsap & Hallinger, 2020).
In compliance with the sustainable goals, the construction industry recognizes that the world has limited natural resources. If these natural resources are not used excessively, it will oppose the sustainable goal of nurturing the resources for future generations. Hence, the construction industry aims to use these resources wisely by conserving water and energy, promoting other materials, and promoting long-lasting products. In terms of water,
