It’s a Green World we live in!

The U.S. Green Building Council estimates that from 2009 to 2013, construction of green buildings will generate as much as $513 billion and create 7.9 million jobs for the domestic economy. This substantial increase in the past decade highlights the significant influence of sustainability on the Gross Domestic Product. It has also been shown that green buildings improve productivity and are healthier for occupants. A study revealed that time off for sickness was reduced by an average of 2.88 days among those who work in green buildings. Productivity has also grown exponentially by a whopping 16 percent. Additionally, the
daily operating costs of green buildings have been reduced by an incredible 13.6 percent. 77 percent of the construction industry believes that green buildings will increase industry revenue. Sustainable buildings have been proven to fetch a higher return on investment through higher demand, a market acceptance of higher rents and lower vacancy rates. Green sustainable buildings have made an indelible mark and are here to stay.
