adapting to
Climate
By AsHisH rAkHejA, memBer AsHrAe
“adapting a building to the climate is better than adapting the climate to
a building” is an apt slogan of Bayer Material Science’s EcoCommercial
Building program. its initiative to develop india’s EcoCommercial Building
(ECB) as a part of the Bayer Climate program has set up a benchmark of
sustainability for the indian construction industry. india’s EcoCommercial
Building, located in greater noida, india (near new delhi), exceeds the
existing standards for high performance buildings and ensures that a building
can deliver back to the climate rather than exploiting the resources.
