Abstract:
INTRODUCTION The Minnesota Sustainable Building Guidelines is a progressive sustainability program for state funded buildings which serves as a model for sustainability in Minnesota buildings. The program was created by the State of Minnesota in 2001 and developed by a team led by the Center for Sustainable Building Research (CSBR) at the University of Minnesota. Unlike other green building programs, it focuses on measured performance improvements, using a list of required metrics instead of a menu of potential options. The program is structured to provide a feedback loop to the building desig

Abstract:
Construction and demolition waste account for a significant part of the solid waste taking up landfills on a global scale. A considerable portion of the waste generated by the construction industry has substantial residual value, and therefore waste management and sustainability principles and techniques should be applied. Buildings consume a lot of energy during the operations phase, but decisions made during design and construction impact building operations. This study reviews sustainable building practices to explore strategies that ensure minimal effects on economy, society, and the envir

Abstract:
Abstract Objective PTT Exploration and Production Public Company Limited (PTTEP) is currently the operator of S1 oilfield located in Kampheangphet province, Thailand. Previously, the electricity used in operating the S1 oilfield was primarily generated by in-plant Gas Turbine Generators (GTG) fueled by natural gas. Recognizing the importance of sustainable energy development, PTTEP initiated "Lan Sang Arun project", a 9.98 MW solar farm designed to provide green energy to support the operations of the S1 oilfield and reduce carbon emission.

Abstract:
Climate change (CC) poses important risks to development in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC). Climate adaptation can limit the negative impacts and is important in achieving sustainable development and equity, including poverty reduction and economic growth. Integrating climate change mitigation into development work is also an opportunity to foster and support the design and implementation of sustainable projects, programs and policies. Low-carbon alternatives contribute to more sustainable development. LAC countries are increasingly incorporating CC in their national policy agendas and

Abstract:
This evaluation from the Office of Evaluation and Oversight (OVE) documents and draws lessons from what the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) has done over the past decade with a view to making a strong future contribution to increasing climate-change resilience and reducing GHG emissions in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC). The evaluation will be organized into three sections and nine chapters. The first section will address the big picture, including climate change challenges and what the IDB is doing to support countries in overcoming these challenges. The second section will addre

Abstract:
Construction materials such as concrete, asphalt, and wood are essential components for Department of Defense (DoD) Military Construction (MILCON) and construction for contingency operations around the world. From housing facilities, to airfields, to magazines and hardened structures, each of these materials fulfill numerous Army building applications. However, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions stemming from the manufacturing, application, maintenance, and disposal of concrete and steel exact a significant climate burden. Thus, due to their pervasive use and commodity status, the advancement of s

Abstract:
This evaluation helps to address the need in literature on Environmental Impact Assessment during the monitoring of operations and ex post evaluations. It helps to develop innovative methodologies for ex post environmental assessments for both the IDB and borrowers. The evaluation uses environmental monitoring data for infrastructure projects through an analysis of indicators and their long-term trends. In general, the evaluation results indicate that the Porce II Hydroelectric project's mitigation measures were relevant for four of the environmental aspects considered, with the exception of l

Abstract:
The environmental crisis is increasing risks to security and peace worldwide, notably in countries that are already fragile. Indicators of insecurity such as the number of conflicts, the number of hungry people and military expenditure are rising; so are indicators of environmental decline, in climate change, biodiversity, pollution and other areas. In combination, the security and environmental crises are creating compound, cascading, emergent, systemic and existential risks. Without profound changes of approach by institutions of authority, risks will inevitably proliferate quickly. Environm

Abstract:
The IIHS Bengaluru City Campus (BCC) expansion necessitated the retrofitting of an existing commercial building into a high-performance teaching and learning space. With urban land constraints and the need for rapid execution, IIHS opted for a sustainable retrofit approach, transforming the 1,350 sqm structure into an energy-efficient and resource-conscious facility. The project focused on optimizing thermal comfort, occupant well-being, and operational efficiency through advanced design techniques, IoT-based monitoring, and innovative material choices.

In 2023, Asian Development Bank together with India’s Ministry of Health, developed a set of five High-Level Principles for Health Care Climate Action. These principles informed the 2023 G20 heads of state and the health working group commitments to strengthen climate-resilient and low-carbon health systems. This paper is the second in a series of five papers outlining policy and operational recommendations for economies in Asia and the Pacific to implement each of the principles.

Key Enabled Technologies(KETs) have the potential to impact on many aspects of society, whilst transforming European industrial competitiveness at the local, national, and global scales. Studies funded by the European Commission have shown that European advances in six technology areas would not only enhance the leadership and competitiveness of European business, but also drive advances across Europe’s business sectors and society. Despite their applicability across sectors, KETs represent a change, and a new manner of moving forward. Business and society view change both positively, welcomin

Abstract:
As the unequal impact of the COVID-19 pandemic continues, there is a need to robustly support vulnerable communities and bolster ‘community resilience.’ A community resilience approach means to work in partnership with communities and strengthen their capacities to mitigate the impact of the pandemic, including its social and economic fallout. However, this is not resilience which returns the status quo. This moment demands transformative change in which inequalities are tackled and socioeconomic conditions are improved. While a community resilience approach is relatively new to epidemic prepa
