Abstract
In our research we have identified three main problems in conventional buildings which could be addressed by green buildings. The three problems are: CO2 Emissions, Temperature Increase and Pure Water Shortage. These factors cause a negative impact on the environment that could be reduced by constructing solar plates, designing the building in such a way that it collects rain water, using bio-based material to reduce CO2 emissions and implementing sunshade devices which will reduce UHI effect (Temperature Increase).
