Abstract

The continued growth of the world's population is driving increasing demand for new buildings and infrastructure development. The building and construction industry has a major impact on human and ecological well-being across the globe. Green buildings that are designed, constructed, and operated to minimize environmental impacts have become an important avenue for promoting sustainability. In the present scenario of rapid urbanization, it is very much essential to follow the guidelines of sustainable development. Thus, in the construction industry, a new initiative called Green Building technology is gaining attention nowadays. However, due to limited research and knowledge of this field, a few stakeholders are only aware of this technology. Until and unless people are aware of this field, a revolution in the construction industry cannot be imagined. It is equally important to increase knowledge among the citizens so that they may understand the long-term advantages of living in a green-rated project (Singlex, Duplex, Flats, etc.). In India, we are still limited to very few registered green projects. To overcome this gap, we have surveyed the stakeholders i.e. residents of Tier-II cities of India to know the status of awareness amongst the citizens of the country about the green building initiatives and consequently, to gain the attention of the government officials to promote this initiative by offering subsidies and other relevant advantages to ones opting for green projects soon. This will increase the interest of buyers to purchase green residential projects which will save our mother nature
