  10. Use of better building materials – insulated walls and ceilings, low heat emitting glazing • Use of Low Flow Water Fixtures and Aerators • Use of CFLs instead of Incandescent Lamps • Recycling of waste water, Rain Water Harvesting • Utilisation of renewable energy – solar water heaters can be a start • Conducting Energy Audits on Existing Buildings

  11. BENEFITS OF GREEN BUILDINGS • TANGIBLE BENEFITS • REDUCED OPERATING COST • ENERGY SAVINGS 40%-50% • WATER SAVINGS 20%-30% • INTANGIBLE BENEFITS • REDUCED IMPACT ON THE ENVIRONMENT • ENHANCE OCCUPANT HEALTH AND COMFORT • IMPROVED PRODUCTIVITY OF OCCUPANTS
