Abstract

Humans are facing problems from climate change that they are responsible for, and these challenges pose a growing threat to sustainable development. The main reason is the global warming rates that have accelerated in the last few decades. The project compares the global warming potential (GWP) of a green building with a conventional building located in Paris, France. It has been noted that adopting strategies such as environmental product declaration as a criterion for material selection, using material with recycled content and applying life cycle impact analysis for a building, could reduce GWP by about 52%.
