Decarbonising Buildings in Cities and Regions.pptxOECDregions
A net-zero carbon future cannot happen without decarbonising buildings, since buildings and the construction sector account for nearly 40% of energy-related global CO2 emissions. The OECD project on “Decarbonising Buildings in Cities and Regions” aims to identify best practices and challenges for both national and subnational governments in driving the decarbonisation of buildings.
Over the past three decades city infrastructure and services have increasingly become digitally networked, programmable and data-driven. Moreover, citizens now regularly use mobile spatial media to mediate their spatial behavior and urban experiences and share information via crowdsourced platforms. As a result we are ever more living in the era of smart urbanism — city systems can be operationally managed dynamically using algorithms processing urban big data, citizens can access and contribute live information about the city, and planners and policy makers can redeploy new streams of data to model and plan the city with increasing granularity. The development of smart urbanism poses opportunities and challenges for urban planning, reshaping how we come to know and govern cities, and this talk will examine these drawing on research conducted in Boston and Dublin.

the notable works of Bjarke Ingels are briefly analyzed and put forward for young architecture students as an inspiration and input along with what Bjarke Believes architecture is. the movie Inception is referenced by Bjarke as he states the relation between architecture and Dream life.
Some of His books are listed with their respective contents.
His architectural style and professional life is also briefly mentioned. finally an advice from Bjarke Ingels for the young architect is also included.
iginally a Viking fishing village founded in the 10th century then became the capital of Denmark in the early 15th century. Beginning in the 17th century it consolidated its position as a regional center of power with its institutions, defences and armed forces. After suffering from the effects of plague and fire in the 18th century, the city underwent a period of redevelopment. This included construction of the prestigious district of Frederiksstaden and founding of such cultural institutions as the Royal Theatre and the Royal Academy of Fine Arts. After further disasters in the early 19th century when Nelson attacked the Dano-Norwegian fleet and bombarded the city, rebuilding during the Danish Golden Age brought a Neoclassical look to Copenhagen's architecture. Later, following the Second World War, the Finger Plan fostered the development of housing and businesses along the five urban railway routes stretching out from the city centre.
Copenhagen – a pioneer in sustainable urban development

Materials are the starting point for architectural design.An architect needs to understand the nature of materials and their possibilities and limitations before they can be used to create buildings and spaces.
Green building is environmentally-conscious construction and operation of a building structure.
A green Building uses less energy, water and other natural resources creates less waste & Green House Gases and is healthy for people during living or working inside as compared to a standard Building. Another meaning of Green Structure is clean environment, water and healthy living.
Effects of Construction Materials to Achieve Sustainable BuildingsDr. Amarjeet Singh
This paper pursues to study the challenges to applied sustainable building resources in building construction and to evaluate the factors influencing the choice of construction materials with respect to the concepts of sustainability. The research purpose was accomplished in two parts; in the first part, a conceptual study to establish the reasons why sustainable building resources are restricted usage in construction, and in the second part a conceptual study on sustainable building resources and their properties.
In order to encourage sustainability in design and construction, several countries have developed an understanding of sustainable development for buildings.
In order to decrease the negative environmental effects of buildings, the construction industry has created sustainable building approaches, where buildings play an important role in greenhouse gases, massive energy, and water use and large land use are important.
Ecological design involves designing houses, offices, or other facilities in a way that decreases the ecological impact, that means sustainable buildings, Where the careful equilibrium among economic, environmental, and social well-being of the currency and communities and therefore of the earth looks to sustainability at current. In order to evaluate the degree of sustainability practices, sustainability evaluation systems were established for effective performance at the top level of qualified systems. In sustainable buildings, accredited standards and checklists will be planned, built, and run.
Presentation tries to look at the cost of buildings, issues in creating cost-effective buildings and options for creating cost-effective, qualitative buildings using architectural design, making buildings green,using local materials, using innovative technologies, prefabrication and putting in place strong project management

UNDERSTANDING WHAT GREEN WASHING IS!.pdfJulietMogola
Many companies today use green washing to lure the public into thinking they are conserving the environment but in real sense they are doing more harm. There have been such several cases from very big companies here in Kenya and also globally. This ranges from various sectors from manufacturing and goes to consumer products. Educating people on greenwashing will enable people to make better choices based on their analysis and not on what they see on marketing sites.
Characterization and the Kinetics of drying at the drying oven and with micro...Open Access Research Paper
The objective of this work is to contribute to valorization de Nephelium lappaceum by the characterization of kinetics of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum. The seeds were dehydrated until a constant mass respectively in a drying oven and a microwawe oven. The temperatures and the powers of drying are respectively: 50, 60 and 70°C and 140, 280 and 420 W. The results show that the curves of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum do not present a phase of constant kinetics. The coefficients of diffusion vary between 2.09.10-8 to 2.98. 10-8m-2/s in the interval of 50°C at 70°C and between 4.83×10-07 at 9.04×10-07 m-8/s for the powers going of 140 W with 420 W the relation between Arrhenius and a value of energy of activation of 16.49 kJ. mol-1 expressed the effect of the temperature on effective diffusivity.

Altered Terrain: Colonial Encroachment and Environmental Changes in Cachar, A...PriyankaKilaniya
The beginning of colonial policy in the area was signaled by the British annexation of the Cachar district in southern Assam in 1832. The region became an alluring investment opportunity for Europeans after British rule over Cachar, especially after the accidental discovery of wild tea in 1855. Within this historical context, this study explores three major stages that characterize the evolution of nature. First, it examines the distribution and growth of tea plantations, examining their size and rate of expansion. The second aspect of the study examines the consequences of land concessions, which led to the initial loss of native forests. Finally, the study investigates the increased strain on forests caused by migrant workers' demands. It also highlights the crucial role that the Forest Department plays in protecting these natural habitats from the invasion of tea planters. This study aims to analyze the intricate relationship between colonialism and the altered landscape of Cachar, Assam, by means of a thorough investigation, shedding light on the environmental, economic, and societal aspects of this historical transformation.
2. 5. Circular Business models
3. Circular Construction Processes
Circular construction in a system view
Circular Construction (CC) is an approach that uses Circular
Economy (CE) principles for the built environment. In this case 3
main principles are considered:
I. Keep buildings, parts and materials in use and reuse as long
as possible with the highest value.
II. Design out and minimise waste, emissions and pollution as
much as possible.
III. Regenerate natural systems using renewable, non-toxic
materials and energy.
In the center of CC remains use and reuse of buildings without
unnecessary resource depletion, environmental pollution and
ecosystem degradation. The focus areas of the 5 layers are:
1. Circular Materials and Resources
2. Circular Building (as a product)
3. Circular Construction Processes
4. Use, space and internal components
5. Circular Business models in construction

3. 1. Circular materials and resources
Source: ARUP, DGNB, BNB standards
Circular materials and resources sourced for construction needs
focus on the topic of materials types, material health, and material
treatment to maximise their value.
1. For circular materials following material types are considered:
- Renewable materials are considered (like wood, and other bio-
based content materials)
- Renewable fuel
- Recyclable materials (like steel, recycled concrete)
- Materials for energy recovery
- Components for reuse
2. Material health and locality:
- Toxic, dangerous and damaging materials for health and
environment are avoided
- Ecological effects of the materials used (e.g. land, soil use)
- High quality materials with long life span
- Preference in use of local resources
3. Material treatment, maintenance

Circular buildings distinguish between new buildings and existing
construction. Both views are important to consider and to equally
focus on.
Criteria for designing new buildings:
● Commercial viability and integration into surrounding
infrastructure and mobility (impact of use model, demolishing
and waste costs)
● Flexible and adaptable building design
● Security and technical quality
● Environmental impact in use phase
● Integrated building technology for energy efficiency and and
less intensive resource use
● Information exchange on materials and resource use w/ district
Efficiency for existing constructions:
CC for existing constructions tries to reuse high-grade building
materials, building parts through transformation or retrofit of a
complete building. Recycling is considered as the last choice.

5. 3. Circular processes for construction
Source: https://www.oekobaudat.de/fileadmin/downloads/0048g170606mh.pdf
The objective of a circular construction process is reflected in the
value chain steps and corresponds to life cycle thinking and
assessment as well as waste and emission reduction during the
construction. Some important criteria to assess the processes:
● Material supply e.g. with sustainable material sourcing and resource
extraction, transparency of used materials and and zero-emission sourcing
● Design, plan and manufacture e.g. with reverse building design (build to
be disassembled and reused at end of life stage), LC assessment and LC
costs for planning
● Construction and installation process (e.g. LC costs in construction
realisation, Building-related life cycle costs, zero emission construction
site)
● Transportation e.g. with consideration of local use and less transportation,
integration of local infrastructure
● Use of building in a flexible and adjustable way
● Maintenance with Repair, Replace, Refurbishment
● Deconstruction and demolition e.g. with maximisation of value
preservation of the resources for recycling
● Waste processing
3. Circular Construction Processes
6. 4. Use, space and internal components
Source: ARUP, DGNB
The design and use of the internal space of a building impacts costs
for construction, acceptance and a sustainable operation of the
building. It is closely related with the building assessment:
● User acceptance and user control of the building
● Efficient space use
- Maximisation of the space use
- Temporary use of the building / interim use
- Plan the unplanned: leave space for unforeseen
activities
● Sociocultural and functional quality:
- Indoor air, acoustic comfort, thermal control, etc.
- Necessity of additional costs for heating / cooling
5. Circular Business models
4. Use, space and
internal components
7. 5. Circular business models in construction
Source: ARUP, Circular City report
Circular business models are a key to the transformation from a
linear to a circular economy in the construction sector, and have to
integrate design strategies, governance, and regulations for
the transition to be a success
● Circular Supply: Replace raw materials with materials that are renewable or
biodegradable in order to minimise input of vergent materials
● Resource Recovery: Recover discarded products or by-products to recycle
or upcycle materials. Reuse and repurpose of different components &
materials by other industries
● Life Extension: Extend the life cycle of a product, or parts of a product,
while preserving the original function.
● Sharing Platforms: Increase the use of a product through new models
for sharing, accessibility, and ownership.
● Product as Service: Optimise productivity of a resource or product
while maintaining ownership of the product.
This approach includes the collaboration between different
stakeholders across the value chain from Design, Sourcing,
Construction, Operation, Renewal, Disassembly, and Repurpose.
