About the Book

Climate change is acknowledged as a certainty of our times; irrespective of the causes determining it – anthropogenic actions or natural events. The impact it has on the planet varies from micro to macro environments. There is a significant scientific agreement that climate change influences different bio-geochemical cycles on the planet such as the carbon, water and the oxygen cycles. Several physio-chemical and natural variables of the planet are affected adversely due to this, which then contribute towards extreme weather conditions including temperature extremes, heat waves, sea level rise, heavy rainfall, tropical cyclones, tornadoes and droughts. Is our built environment prepared to adapt to such changes in the environment and what are we doing towards the mitigation efforts to the causes of climate change? Recent literature establishes that the construction industry is accountable for more than 45% of total worldwide carbon emissions. A vast consumption of energy is attributed to the construction, manufacturing of materials, heating and cooling, maintenance, lighting and demolition of buildings worldwide and that has a significant role to play in climate change. The majority of energy consumed by the construction industry is produced by non-renewable methods, contributing to the emissions causative to climate change. There is an enormous gap in the understanding that exists on how these emissions from the construction sector can be dealt with and at the same time how the built environment can adapt and acclimatize to various changes in the external environmental conditions. Filling these gaps would require assimilation of recognized knowledge, advanced research towards establishing adaptive design methodologies, implementation of innovative technologies and most of all the application of multi-disciplinary investigations.
