Internet Based Software Platform for Reducing the Construction Sector's Carbon Footprint
FY 2018-19 · 2019-02-01
Summary
The total CO2 emission from the global construction sector is about 23% of the total CO2 emissions produced. Sadly, over 30% of the construction materials end up as waste in the landfills and these landfills account ~15% of emissions resulting in massive environmental problems. Hence there is a strong need to reduce the carbon footprint mainly in the developed countries (G7) & in the emerging markets (Brazil, India, & China). Hence this project to provide an Internet based platform for reducing carbon footprint of the construction sector.

Description
The total CO2 emission from the global construction sector is about 23% of the total CO2 emissions produced. Sadly, over 30% of the construction materials end up as waste in the landfills and these landfills account ~15% of emissions resulting in massive environmental problems. Hence there is a strong need to reduce the carbon footprint mainly in the developed countries (G7) & in the emerging markets (Brazil, India, & China). Hence this project to provide an Internet based platform for reducing carbon footprint of the construction sector.
Description (French)
Les émissions totales de CO2 du secteur mondial de la construction représentent environ 23% des émissions totales de CO2 produites. Malheureusement, plus de 30 % des matériaux de construction finissent dans les décharges et ces décharges représentent environ 15 % des émissions, ce qui entraîne d'énormes problèmes environnementaux. Il y a donc un fort besoin de réduire l'empreinte carbone principalement dans les pays développés (G7) et dans les marchés émergents (Brésil, Inde et Chine). Par conséquent, ce projet vise à fournir une plate-forme basée sur Internet pour réduire l'empreinte carbone du secteur de la construction.
