Green building is not a specific construction method, but it brings together a set of techniques, materials and technologies which when suitably integrated in a construction project, contribute to enhancing its environmental performance. In an ideal world, eco-construction optimizes energy efficiency, limits water consumption, makes maximum use of recycled, recyclable and non-toxic materials.
