1. Da Vinci Code

10. Poor And Disadvantaged people

11. Where are these poor people Latur Usmanabad Orissa Bihar Mumbai Pune Africa, China, USA!! Everywhere….

12. Knowing the world we live in….. Norwegian diplomat Charung Gollar was asked to present the UN with a graphical representation highlighting the main problems in the world in 2004. He presented a set of 8 pictures entitled "The power of stars" and was applauded for the simplicity of his idea.

20. Poor People Less than 1 dollor per day…per day!! 16,000 kids dying every day with hunger or poverty related diseases which is a 11 children every seconds!! 1 billion people are below poverty line..and they die at the age when we graduate, when we start earning and when we start talking about security in terms of money in life.. ????????????? What are we talking about??

22. Greatest Oil Reserves by Country, 2005 RankCountry Proved reserves (billion barrels) 1.Saudi Arabia261.9 2.Canada178.8 3.Iran125.8 4.Iraq115.0 5.Kuwait101.5 6.United Arab Emirates97.8 7.Venezuela77.2 8.Russia60.0 9.Libya39.0 10.Nigeria35.3

23. Against all these issues are we talking about sustainability?? Can we?? Can we include poor and disadvantaged, earning less than a $ a day in the issues around sustainability? Can we deal with very powerful, subtle political clout working between North-South dilemma? I think these issues are CROSS DISCIPLINE They simply just dont talk in isolation about Architecture, medicine, engineering or for that matter Any discipline in isolation…..

24. Sustainability?? Yes, there are models of poor countries which reacted Intelligently, worked on their own issues, worked with their own experts, and Created amazing models which challenged the western world!!

25. One of the index for development or sustainability across globe is Considered to be Infant Mortality Rate How many children die before they reach the age of 1 year.. India---71 And if you are unlucky then you are born in Iraq, Yemen, East Timor and several other countries Where its believed to be more than 200 or 250….

26. CUBA ---- USA Cuba 3000 $ USA 40,000 $ And Cuba is just 90 miles away from USA

29. Sustainable Buildings LEED SBET ………………………. and we are talking about Human beings!!

32. Future building markets Carbon taxes, eco-labeling and emissions trading may all be realistic options in a world striving to achieve ecologically sustainable development to counter the growing impact of human activity resulting in land degradation, loss of natural eco-systems and global warming.

33. The challenge was How to Compare Monitor Develop scientific assessment Develop tools that will carry out these issues simple and manageable Assessment Tools

34. Scandanavia BEAT 2000 Gro Harlem Brunddtland PM Norwe first attempted sustainable building initiative in 1972 Finland: Granlund LCA-Tool Software Pimwag: Finland

35. BREEAM, 1990 DEVELOPED BY- BRE (Building Research Establishment) NATURE OF THE SYSTEM All the issues in EcoHomes are optional flexible and enabling developers to adopt the most appropriate aspects of sustainability for their particular development and market. considers the broad environmental concerns of climate change, resource use and impact on wildlife, and balances these against the need for a high quality of life, and a safe and healthy internal environment. ASSESSMENT Assessments are undertaken by licensed assessors, who are trained and monitored by BRE environmental performance expressed on a scale of Pass to Excellent Different stages of assessment –Stage 1 – Assessment of specification: –Stage 2 – Assessment of house types: –Stage 3 – Assessment of development: This stage completes the assessment as it covers all remaining issues, such as ecological value of the site and transport.

36. Holland: DCBA method Rotterdam 1995: Sustainable Building Plan: Investing in Future –Investing in health x health as an investment Different levels of intervention –Autonomous situation, near ZERO impact on environment –Little impact –Conventional Construction but with reduced damage –Conventional construction

37. France HQE Denomination The tool is based on 14 target areas, grouped in to 4 themes, namely –Environmental construction –Environmental management –Comfort –Health

38. Minergie, Swiss The Swiss building sectors use of energy breaks down as follows: –Heating, ventilation and air conditioning 65% –Construction 15% –Hot water consumption 10% –Electricity Consumption 10%

39. LEED DEVELOPED BY-US Green Building Council. NATURE OF THE SYSTEM voluntary consensus-based market-driven based on existing proven technology evaluates environmental performance from a "whole building" perspective over a building's life cycle based on accepted energy and environmental principles open to public scrutiny designed for rating new and existing commercial, institutional, and high rise residential buildings. ASSESSMENT self-assessment feature-oriented system credits are earned for satisfying each criteria. Different levels of green building certification are awarded based on the total credits earned. comprehensive in scope, yet simple in operation.
