China is the largest country in the world by population. In the field of economic progress too, he has made a name in the world. Buildings in the same proportion are also needed for the large population to live and run economic activities smoothly. China has been working extensively in this field. Experts at this time say that in the coming decade, half of the buildings will be built in China, only in China. China already has two billion square meters of floor space ready every year. Even if these buildings are one storey, their total area will be equal to the area of the whole of London. This is a huge figure in terms of carbon emissions.
Along with increasing economic activity, China has also given speed to building construction. Along with this, the use of energy in these buildings also increased, which created a challenge for the environment. Between 2001 and 2016, China's construction sector has consumed energy equivalent to one billion tons of coal. The amount of energy used from raw material supply to building construction is about one-fifth of China's total carbon emissions. On such a wide scale, carbon emissions are a danger to both humans and the environment. The people of China have also felt this danger, and have also paid its price. That is why work is being done on such new methods of building buildings so that carbon emissions can be reduced. For this, the most effective method so far is to cover the buildings with plants.
Apart from this, this type of experiment was first done by an Italian architect Stefano Bori in the city of Milan, Italy, and now Bori's team is going to do the same experiment in China. Work is underway to build two such green towers in Nanjing city of China, which will be completely covered with greenery. These towers were to be completed by the end of 2020, but due to the epidemic, the work will not be completed on time.
