Abstract:
Climate change adaptations already identified as a key priority globally. Sustainable building practices like
climate adaptive buildings and green buildings are immerged more prominently supporting climate adaptation
strategies. A quantitative assessment through scientifically accepted LCA method supports to justify the
environmental investments in these new constructions models. Introducing a simple LCA tool assessing the
global warming potential calculating through greenhouse house gas emission per selected functional unit
supports to find the environmental savings or degradations. Scope can be select to cover both constructing & use
phases. LCA outputs will further reinforce the sustainable building initiatives both ecologically and
economically.
