Refuse, Reduce, Resuse, Recycle and Rot
Pollution is one of the most pressing environmental challenges we face today. The construction industry is responsible for nearly 40% of global energy-related carbon emissions and a significant amount of waste. With this alarming statistic, it is more important than ever to embrace sustainable construction practices. By incorporating the 5 Rs of sustainability—Refuse, Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, and Rot—our construction company significantly helps decrease the environmental impact. We create sustainable buildings by reducing their energy consumption, limiting waste production, and using eco-friendly materials, that combat pollution and preserve our planet for future generations.
FACTS ON CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY’s IMPACT ON NATURE
Resoponisble for 40% of global energy-related CO2 emissions.
Construction materials, such as cement, steel, and timber, account for about 60% of the total global resource extraction, leading to over-exploitation of natural resources.
Construction waste is a growing concern, with the industry generating approximately 1.3 billion tons of waste annually, which makes up a substantial portion of landfill material.
The extraction of raw materials for construction, such as sand, gravel, and minerals, has led to significant habitat destruction, biodiversity loss, and soil erosion.
Sand is the second most consumed natural resource on Earth, following water, and its demand is expected to double by 2060.
The construction transportation sector is responsible for approximately 14% of total global transportation emissions.
