Session 1Global Trend of Built Sustainability & The Leading Edge Trend of Green Buildings

It is recognized globally that “Sustainability” discipline is one of the key scientific and engineering practices, and it is much needed to support the development of Hong Kong and the Region. Urban and building sustainability development requires multi-disciplinary practice and the results can only be achieved through comprehensive planning, integrated design, thorough testing and continuous measurement. Increased efforts in this area will help Hong Kong become a more responsible metropolis and contribute toward a low-carbon, sustainable built environment for future generations to enjoy.
