The document discusses green schools and IGBC's green school rating system. It defines a green school as one that addresses children's health and hygiene, conserves resources, uses less water and energy, and generates less waste. The rating system focuses on site selection, water and energy practices, classroom furniture, indoor quality, health, and green education. Top features of green schools include daylight, ventilation, water and energy efficiency, waste handling, transit, and universal design. The rating process involves point distributions across various sustainability modules and levels of certification. Several example schools in India that have achieved platinum ratings are highlighted.

The document discusses the Indian Green Building Council's (IGBC) Green New Buildings rating system. It aims to facilitate environmentally friendly buildings through design, water and energy efficiency, waste management, and occupant health. The rating system evaluates buildings across modules like energy, water, materials, site selection, and indoor quality. Buildings are certified at levels from certified to super platinum based on their score. The system addresses national priorities around conservation and aims to reduce buildings' environmental impacts. It provides a checklist that sums points across modules to determine a project's certification level.

1. The document compares two prominent green building rating systems in India - LEED and GRIHA. It uses the Suzlon One Earth building as a case study as it is certified under both systems.
2. Key findings of the comparison include that LEED provides different rating systems based on building type while GRIHA has one system for all. GRIHA's appeal process is before certification while LEED allows appeals post-certification. GRIHA also considers water conservation aspects like recycled water that LEED neglects.

Difference between the GRIHA process and LEED process. Rating system of both the processes.
Green buildings aim to minimize environmental impact, maximize health and comfort, and reduce operating costs over the lifetime of the building. The principles of green building include minimizing resource consumption and pollution throughout construction and use. Potential benefits include reduced lifetime costs, improved energy efficiency, healthier indoor environments, and increased occupant productivity. While initial costs may be higher, the operating cost savings over the building's lifetime typically outweigh the initial investment. Green building practices can be applied to both air-conditioned and non-air conditioned structures.
Green building construction for sustainable futureAlexander Decker
This document provides an overview of green building construction in India. It discusses how green building is becoming more popular in India to promote sustainable development as the economy and infrastructure grow rapidly. Two main green building rating systems used in India are LEED, adapted from the international system, and GRIHA, developed for India's conditions. So far over 200 buildings have received LEED certification and several have received GRIHA certification. The benefits of green buildings discussed include 25-30% reduced energy consumption, lower costs, improved employee productivity and health. Widespread awareness and training are still needed for green building practices to be adopted more widely.
A Brief Overview of GRIHA and IGBC Rating SystemsIRJET Journal
This document provides an overview of two prominent green building rating systems in India: GRIHA and IGBC. It discusses their origins, performance parameters, rating thresholds, assessment processes, mandatory provisions, and incentives provided by various state governments. Key differences noted are that GRIHA was developed specifically for India while IGBC criteria are adapted from the international LEED system. GRIHA also has more mandatory criteria and a longer rating validity period of 5 years compared to 3 years for IGBC. Overall, both systems aim to promote sustainable construction and reduce environmental impacts, though they differ in some criteria and implementation details.
This document discusses green buildings and sustainability. It defines green building as optimizing efficiency in using energy, water and other resources throughout a building's lifecycle. The key principles discussed include sustainable site design, water and energy efficiency, indoor environmental quality, material efficiency. Green buildings provide benefits like reduced costs, improved health and productivity. Rating systems like LEED and IGBC are also summarized.
Green buildings are designed to reduce environmental impact through efficient use of resources, protection of occupant health, and reduction of waste and pollution. They emphasize using renewable resources and techniques like passive solar, green roofs, and permeable surfaces. The Indian Green Building Council promotes green building practices in India and has developed rating systems to evaluate buildings. Notable green building projects in India include the ITC Green Centre in Gurgaon and Nokia's corporate office, which have received LEED Platinum certification.

Monitor indicators of genetic diversity from space using Earth Observation dataSpatial Genetics
Genetic diversity within and among populations is essential for species persistence. While targets and indicators for genetic diversity are captured in the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework, assessing genetic diversity across many species at national and regional scales remains challenging. Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) need accessible tools for reliable and efficient monitoring at relevant scales. Here, we describe how Earth Observation satellites (EO) make essential contributions to enable, accelerate, and improve genetic diversity monitoring and preservation. Specifically, we introduce a workflow integrating EO into existing genetic diversity monitoring strategies and present a set of examples where EO data is or can be integrated to improve assessment, monitoring, and conservation. We describe how available EO data can be integrated in innovative ways to support calculation of the genetic diversity indicators of the GBF monitoring framework and to inform management and monitoring decisions, especially in areas with limited research infrastructure or access. We also describe novel, integrative approaches to improve the indicators that can be implemented with the coming generation of EO data, and new capabilities that will provide unprecedented detail to characterize the changes to Earth’s surface and their implications for biodiversity, on a global scale.

"Laudato Si" is the second encyclical of Pope Francis, released on May 24, 2015. Its title comes from the opening words of the encyclical in Latin, which mean "Praise Be to You." The document focuses on the theme of care for our common home, urging humanity to take action to address environmental degradation, climate change, and social inequality. Pope Francis calls for an integral ecology that considers the interconnectedness of environmental, social, economic, and spiritual dimensions.

The modification of an existing product or the formulation of a new product to fill a newly identified market niche or customer need are both examples of product development. This study generally developed and conducted the formulation of aramang baked products enriched with malunggay conducted by the researchers. Specifically, it answered the acceptability level in terms of taste, texture, flavor, odor, and color also the overall acceptability of enriched aramang baked products. The study used the frequency distribution for evaluators to determine the acceptability of enriched aramang baked products enriched with malunggay. As per sensory evaluation conducted by the researchers, it was proven that aramang baked products enriched with malunggay was acceptable in terms of Odor, Taste, Flavor, Color, and Texture. Based on the results of sensory evaluation of enriched aramang baked products proven that three (3) treatments were all highly acceptable in terms of variable Odor, Taste, Flavor, Color and Textures conducted by the researchers.

Also known as sustainable building or green construction, It compliments the
building design concerns of economy, utility, durability and comfort.
Green building is the practice of creating structures and processes that are
environment friendly and resource efficient throughout the life span of a building
right from site selection to design, construction, operation, maintenance,
renovation and deconstruction
