Ecological architecture aims to conserve resources like building materials, water, air, and energy for future generations. It also creates spaces that are aesthetically pleasing to live and work in while being environmentally friendly. Some key aspects of ecological architecture include minimizing the project footprint, reusing materials, implementing rainwater harvesting, and designing roofs that can grow food to address issues like water security, energy needs, and protecting biodiversity.

2. Back to the question.... What is Ecological Architecture????

3. To me......... It is which conserves resources for future And the resources are----- Building materials Water Air Energy and Bio- diversity..........................

4. And Creates a space which is aesthetically pleasing to live/ work in......

45. Can they be smarter ???? Since they receive---------- maximum sunlight and heat all the rain lots of wind and a whole bunch of birds, butterflies and bees Can they solve Bangalore’s water, wastewater, energy, sewage, food and bio-diversity problem ?

47. How about? A roof that grows rice

50. So what can a smart roof do? Provide Food security… and grow rice, banana, vegetables Water security .. and treat waste water Energy security… and keep the house cool Ecological security… and help save the sparrow

51. Harvests rain

52. Uses the Sun

53. Uses treated grey water to grow it
