World Green Building Week, 21-27 Sept, Worldwide

What: World Green Building Week

Where: Kolkata/Multiple cities Worldwide

When: 21-27 September, 2015

Why: World Green Building Week started in 2009 to create a more connected, more interactive, more public conversation around the role buildings play in creating our sustainable future. Buildings consume a third of the world’s energy and are responsible for a fifth of global emissions.  This could double or triple by 2050. Green buildings are powering positive change – slashing energy use and emissions, saving water and waste to landfill, and providing healthier places for people.

Organized by: World Green Building Council - a network of national green building councils in more than one hundred countries, with a mission to strengthen green building councils in member countries by championing their leadership and connecting them to a network of knowledge, inspiration and practical support.
