Abstract: The infrastructure business in India is rapidly increasing. Infrastructure is the most major hindrance to the growth of Indian businesses in India. Existing buildings account for 45 percent of worldwide energy use in the current condition. These constructions' greenhouse gas emissions are mostly to blame for global warming, acid rain, and other environmental difficulties. We can reduce our dependency on limited natural resources like power, water, and materials which use in building while simultaneously enhancing our contribution to environmental quality by incorporating green building themes into the design, construction, and maintenance of buildings, and restoration of our houses. It is a common misconception that only new buildings can be certified as green building, however this is not true. Existing buildings may be made certified green by taking certain step. With each existing building's effort in adopting the existing green building strategies, an enormous effect in combating global warming will be anticipated in return. GRIHA provides green building certification at various levels. There are several ways for meeting these objectives with the cooperation of humans and the use of modern technology and procedures. In retrofitting existing building for GRIHA certification, aspects like site availability, energy efficiency, water efficiency, renewable energy, natural lighting are taken into account. The present paper presents the retrofitting required to transform an existing building to a certified green building with ease and cost effectiveness.

Abstract For the sustainable built environment, Green Building technology is the most widely adopted trend worldwide, however, it is in a nascent stage in India. Even though the use of green building technology is advantageous over the lifecycle of the project, people are hesitant to adopt. Therefore, this study aims at identifying the critical factors affecting the implementation of green buildings in India. For this purpose, an extensive literature review was done to identify factors affecting the implementation of green buildings. In total 27 factors were identified which may be critical for the adoption of green building technology widely in an Indian context. The questionnaire was prepared using the five-point Likert scale. The questionnaire was sent through emails to 150 consultants in India and 52 valid responses received in return. The primary data is analyzed using factor analysis. The critical factors found are time and knowledge constraints; technical constraints; authenticity of research and awareness about Green Building. Though the findings of this study are based on the small sample size, it will be beneficial to the policymakers

Green building refers to a structure and employing a method that's environmentally accountable and resource economical throughout a building’s life cycle. Since buildings consume nearly five hundredth of the world's total energy, inexperienced buildings, on the other hand, consume a minimum quantity of energy with the utilization of energy economical materials. Hence, location of inexperienced buildings within the close proximity would produce an inexperienced zone and supply a far healthier setting with minimum heat island result. In India there are 2 primary rating systems for inexperienced buildings: GRIHA (green rating for integrated surround assessment), LEED (leadership in energy and setting design). Green buildings compared to standard buildings appear specifically similar and conjointly within the building use, however disagree within the operational savings and considerations for human comfort and indoor and atmosphere. inexperienced buildings get pleasure from the advantages of saving 40-50% energy by reducing greenhouse gas emissions into the atmosphere; it conjointly saves concerning 20-30% of water by victimization rain gathering or gray apply techniques. It conjointly reduces VMT (vehicle miles travelled) by selecting the placement near conveyance and conveniences that helps in reduction of petrol consumption. However, on the opposite hand, inexperienced buildings face several barriers just like the high initial investment needed for construction, split incentives.

The global construction sector accounts for 13.2% of the world GDP. It contributes to the world’s economic growth engine and climate changes due to its high energy footprint. Sustainable buildings can reduce the adverse impacts of the construction industry, but their adoption is slow due to hindrances. The purpose of this paper is to extensively review the literature on barriers to green building adoption to date. Also, to highlight the overlapping and unique barriers specific to India compared to few prominent countries, provide solutions and recommendations for future research. The barriers were classified under Economic, Governmental, Organizational, and Social perception, Information, Technology, and material categories. Barriers unique to India and few others developing countries are an extension of project schedules, lack of research and developmental works, lack of public motivation, poor building code enforcement, high payback period, uncertain supply of green materials, improper implementation of policy framework, and performance of GBTs. The green building construction sector is fragmented around the world. Even green building definition is not the same globally, although the environmental aspect is the same. Similarly, there are unique and overlapping challenges in green building adoption globally. Buildings in usage perspectives can be classified into Residential and Non-residential. This study looks only at non-residential buildings due to their homogenous nature. There is a dearth of specific studies related to the adoption of green buildings in India. This study aims to fulfill India’s standing in the barriers to green building adoption concerning the developed and developing countries.

Abstract There are, presently, two schools of thought when it comes to designing buildings that promote sustainable development. One school emphasizes materials use and ‘‘green’’ buildings, while the other emphasizes energy use and energy efficient buildings. The promoters of ‘‘green’’ buildings often claim that the reduced energy use during operation of the low energy and solar buildings is counteracted by the increased embodied energy in these buildings. This paper gives categorical analysis of the technologies available for Low energy and green architecture and emphasizes the need to integrate both in residential buildings to of lower the energy use in operation during the lifetime in a residential building in hot arid climate. The results also show that there should be little difference between the approaches of the two schools of thought. The best buildings will generally be those that are both low energy, and ‘‘green’’. This paper also gives policy guidelines to integrate them in the building bye-laws for hot arid climate

Abstract: Globally, half of the whole energy is produced and consumed by buildings and is liable for an oversized share of Co2, radiation, and gases. Despite a lot of assessments that have been taken throughout the globe to establish smart and sustainable construction, whereas pollution and global warming are rapidly increasing far and wide universally. Climate changes within the previous few years have conjointly been detected due to a surge in greenhouse gases everywhere on the planet. An initiative for world awareness and global climate change has escalated adequately throughout the earth for the depletion of carbon emissions and harmful gases. The developed countries like Australia, Germany, USA square measure already targeted on this sector, and their government has taken demanding rules to realize eco-friendly and sustainable expansion. Countries like Nepal, India, and Bangladesh face an obstacle regarding the shorter information provided to them in achieving and enhancing eco-friendly construction and property development. Lack of perception amongst the individuals regarding the world wide problems is clouded in economically developing nations. This research paper presents the need for sustainable green construction especially in developing countries like India, Bangladesh has maximum population growth, extremely which are living in most populated areas inflicting a threat to the surroundings, and also the living organisms within the future. This study is specially designated for a building that is designed and created as a conventional building. This Analysis understands the selling price of greening existing buildings before upgrading the building into a sustainable building. The upkeep and operational price are conjointly computed. This study targeted the economic edges and environmental edges once the building is remolded into a Green building.

The photovoltaic (PV) system is one of the most promising technologies that generate benevolent electricity. Therefore, fossil fuel-generated electric power plants, that emit an enormous amount of greenhouse gases, can be replaced by the PV power plant. However, due to its lower efficiency than a traditional power plant, and to generate equal amount of power, a large land area is required for the PV power plant. Also, transmission and distribution losses are intricate issues for PV power plants. Therefore, the inclusion of PV into a building is one of the holistic approaches which reduce the necessity for such large land areas. Building-integrated and building attached/applied are the two types where PV can be included in the building. Building applied/attached PV(BAPV) indicates that the PV system is added/attached or applied to a building, whereas, building integrated PV (BIPV) illustrates the concept of replacing the traditional building envelop, such as window, wall, roof by PV. In India, applying PV on a building is growing due to India’s solar mission target for 2022. In 2015, through Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission, India targeted to achieve 100 GW PV power of which 40 GW will be acquired from roof-integrated PV by 2022. By the end of December 2019, India achieved 33.7 GW total installed PV power. Also, green/zero energy/and sustainable buildings are gaining significance in India due to rapid urbanization. However, BIPV system is rarely used in India which is likely due to a lack of government support and public awareness. This work reviewed the status of BIPV/BAPV system in India. The BIPV window system can probably be the suitable BIPV product for Indian context to reduce the building’s HVAC load.

Abstract A common dilemma for developing countries is to balance economic growth and environmental protection. Since the major issue in designing the building is energy conservation. The costing of building project is another issue in applying the principle of energy. A building uses a huge amount of energy during its lifetime. It is greater than the energy consumed in construction. There are numerous causes why building will use more energy during its life. Taking into account the building materials used in the built environment as well as the overall energy use should be taken into account when looking for ways to minimize energy consumption. In light of climate change, by 2030, India has to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions to 35%. Thus, the aim of this research is to is to find out the measures that can reduce the energy consumption of building not only at the time of construction but also lifetime. The study suggests various energy efficient measures for construction of building and for further functioning. In this paper the concept of green building was discussed to make a building energy efficient. Green building focuses on the reduction of carbon emissions and conservation of energy using a progressive difference-in-differences method. The study suggests the various energy saving concepts. Further, there are many green building rating systems to rate the building on various dimension to measure whether a building is environmental-friendly or not. In the end of the paper various issues involved in energy efficient building’s construction are discussed.

Fossil benthonic photosynthetic algae capable of calcification contributed to the formation of Indian Cretaceous-Tertiary carbonate deposits. A comparative assessment of different marine calcareous algal assemblages known from various sedimentary basins and their ecological requirements have been highlighted. A comprehensive synthesis and retrospect of research on calcareous algae demonstrate extensive growth of green and red algae during Cretaceous-Tertiary times in India. The calcareous blue-green algae are feebly represented in the Cretaceous deposits and not recorded from the Tertiary deposits. Various ecological factors determined the distribution of different calcareous algal groups. An apparent extinction of calcareous algae is attributed to gaps in our knowledge and evolutionary changes.

Green-building rating systems (GBRSs) are critical for implementing climate change (CC) mitigation strategies because they can help reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from the building sector. From the Indian policy perspective, the ClimateSMART Cities Assessment Framework (CSCAF) provides cities a roadmap toward mitigating CC while planning/implementing their actions and facilitates realising energy efficiency and green buildings through GBRS adoption and incentivisation. Green Rating for Integrated Habitat Assessment (GRIHA) is a comprehensive GBRS aligned with CSCAF and India’s climate goals, facilitating the implementation of Government of India’s relevant policies and climate-adaptation measures within a building project’s different phases. This paper examines existing institutional mechanisms for incentivising GRIHA-rated projects and provides recommendations for municipal bodies, regional developmental authorities, and state governments for strengthening resource efficiency in the built environment through GRIHA. Residential buildings are considered because their contribution to GHG emissions is the greatest among buildings. Data were collected through literature review, reviewing smart-city proposals and latest state annual action plans, Right to Information queries, and structured interviews of stakeholders. Feedback from green-building certification agencies, project proponents, and government officials revealed a need for local-level information dissemination and guidance on institutional mechanisms for incentivising green-rated projects. Further, to understand the implementation mechanisms for GRIHA-linked incentives, residential projects under some local-government agencies were documented as case studies, providing useful insights into prevalent mechanisms for availing incentives while facilitating GRIHA compliance. The information provided herein can be useful for local governments in other developing countries for guiding the building sector toward mitigating climate change.

With the rise in problems mainly ecological as well as energy crises that are intensifying today, the concept of green has become essential concerning sustainable development. The hospital building consumes much more energy and generates more waste, as compared to the other types of buildings. The climate change, contamination of chemicals, and use of unsustainable resources are all making health worse day by day over the world. The health sectors are themselves causing these problems on a broad scale. So, hospitals, health sectors must be green, there must be proper management of resources, waste etc., which means that it must have a minimum negative impact on the environment. The term Green Hospital has evolved as a way of addressing environmental issues, overcoming them and meeting society’s need. In India, Green Rating for Integrated Habitat Assessment (GRIHA) is one of the tools that provides green building certification to hospital buildings also. This paper aims at analyzing and investigating a hospital building (Trauma centre), Jawaharlal Nehru Medical College, Aligarh, based on major criteria of the GRIHA variant for existing buildings. This hospital building had been provisionally-rated by GRIHA in the year 2016 as 3 stars. This paper includes the analysis of building based on various calculations and in depth study of how this 3 star rating was provisionally achieved. This paper involves two main calculations, one regarding peak heat gain and the other is EPI.

Green pest management is an environmental-friendly pest management that helps to control pests and reduces harmful use of pesticides. Pests like woodworms, longhorn beetles, fruit flies, spiders, termites and paper mites in the buildings degrade the carpets, leather, wood, cloth, food, utensils and so on. They can spread diseases, damage properties and contaminate food in our home. So, green pest management has been developed in buildings to avoid degradation and protect human health and surrounding environment. Green pest management is a relatively new concept. Its practices help to keep our building green. It includes sanitation, management, biological control, least toxic chemical pesticides and minimum use of chemicals and avoids killing of non-target species by spraying in target locations. Green Pest Control India Pvt Ltd in Borivali East, Mumbai; Herbal Pest Control Services in Bengaluru, Karnataka, India; Green Pest Management by Johnsons group in Hong Kong; Ehrlichs Green Pest control service in Pennsylvania; Eco Smart Technologies in United States; Green Pest Services Ecofriendly and Organic Pest Control at St. Lucie and Martin country and so on are providing service. This green pest management is also included in green building certification rating system for all sustainable buildings. This article describes the impact of pests on the environment and sustainable pest management practices in existing homes. It is an innovative service provider with a mission of creating a ‘happy community’ as we value and respect the various needs of our customers.

In the wake of sustainable construction entering the mainstream, many developing countries are either currently pursuing green building guidelines or are planning to pursue them in the near future. This research attempts to formulate an implementation strategy for the rapid adoption of these guidelines for the developing nations. This implementation strategy is based on the detailed review of the major green building guidelines globally and contextual information of Indian society collected through a survey questionnaire. The proposed strategy shows that it is important for green building initiatives to identify: the organizations that accelerate the adoption of green building guidelines in a society, the incentives and barriers associated with the green building guidelines, and the necessary motivations for the adopter organizations. An informed approach in the form of this implementation strategy might potentially contribute to the acceleration of green building guidelines' adoption in developing countries.

India is a country with a rapidly growing demand for energy. Currently, most of the country's energy demand is met by fossil fuels which are hindering our environment by contributing to greenhouse gas emissions and climate change. Green hydrogen produced from renewable energy sources is clean and free from the pollution which can reduce our country's dependency on fossil fuels. Building a green hydrogen community in India can help the country to transit into sustainable development and achieve net zero emissions. Our review shows that green hydrogen can be produced in India according to the geography of the different regions rich in renewable energy resources such as solar and wind power. Many states in India have high solar energy prospectus, high wind speeds and existing infrastructure and supply chain logistics that can be used for the production and distribution of green hydrogen. States such as Gujarat, Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu have been identified by the Indian government as "renewable energy clusters" and aim to support the development of green hydrogen projects. Additionally, the Indian coastal area's seawater can be used as a water source for electrolysis. These coasts are windy and suitable for wind power generation and have access to excellent ports and transport infrastructure to transport green hydrogen. Overall, India has unlimited potential for green hydrogen production due to its abundant renewable energy sources and favourable geographical conditions. India can use this potential to become a major player in the green hydrogen market with the right political and regulatory framework.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to comprehend the ways of knowledge and application of green building guidelines and assessment systems as innovations diffuse in developing countries’ Architecture Engineering and Construction (AEC) industries. Design/methodology/approach – Building up on recent research on the India case, this study focused on Indonesia and Turkey and further studied “how green building assessment systems diffuse in developing countries”. A total of 110 experts representing individuals from private and governmental sectors from both countries responded to the conducted survey. Findings – Findings show insights to adoption of green building guidelines in developing countries, including their diffusion paths, barriers to their use and their applications. Additionally, the results are compared with the India case from the recent literature and analysed via the lens of the diffusion of innovation theory. Research limitations/implications – A random sampling of the AEC industries in developing countries in future studies and capturing of the evolution of the trends over time will provide further insights into the diffusion of innovation phenomena in the context of green building guidelines. Practical implications – Innovation adoption paths for green building guidelines in Indonesia, Turkey and India are similar, while a higher adoption rate is observed in the case of India. “Diffusion of innovation” categories for green building guidelines that define the state of each adopter at the time of survey conduct in India, Indonesia and Turkey are found. Environmental groups as innovator, large business houses as early adopter and nodal agencies as early majority are the common adopters and categories of green building guidelines. The study findings align with those in the literature and show that clients and market conditions can catalyse the diffusion of innovation in AEC industries in Turkey and Indonesia. Social implications – Diffusion of green building guidelines as innovations in developing countries’ AEC industries showed alignment with the Roger’s (2003) model. However, respondents in both Turkey and Indonesia reported approximately ten times as many innovators and twice as many early adopters as Roger’s (2003) model would predict. Because of the small proportions of late adopters and laggards in these two countries, any useful innovation should be quickly incorporated. Originality/value – Aligning with the literature, findings show that clients and market conditions catalyse diffusion of innovation in AEC industries in Turkey and Indonesia. It is important to note that both countries approximately have ten times as many innovators and twice as many early adopters as theory would predict. Because of the small proportions of late adopters and laggards in these two countries, useful green building innovations could be quickly incorporated.

Purpose Global warming and climate change is one of the biggest issues facing humanity in this century; its effects are felt on the highest peaks of Mount Everest to the low-lying islands in the India Ocean. This century marked the highest amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) emitted, breaking records of the past 650,000 years, and we have pushed the climate to “a point of no return”. Much of the climate contribution has been linked to humanity’s thirst for higher living standards and lifestyle, which has led to higher consumerism, depletion of earth’s resources, production of massive waste and carbon emissions. Fast forward from the sustainability agenda of Brundtland set in 1987 and the increasing demand for energy consumption to cater for the current global inhabitants, many “green” efforts have been taken by the building industry to reduce the overall environmental impact. This purpose of this study is to compare energy performance of a conventional office building with a green certified building. Design/methodology/approach This paper tries to bridge the performance gap by comparing measured operational energy consumption and carbon emission of Green Building Index (GBI)-certified office buildings in Kuala Lumpur, to determine whether “green buildings” are performing as intended in reducing their environmental impact. Findings This paper highlighted and compared operational energy consumption and carbon emissions of a GBI-certified office with a conventional office building in Malaysia. The paper also discusses the performance gap issue and its common causes, and aims to compare predicted energy and operational energy performance of buildings. Originality/value Initiatives such as “green” or “sustainable” design have been at the forefront of architecture, while green assessment tools have been used to predict the energy performance of a building during its operational phase. There is still a significant performance gap between predicted or simulated energy measurements to actual operational energy consumption. The need to measure actual performance of these so-called “green buildings” is important to investigate if there is a performance gap and whether these buildings can perform better than conventional buildings. Understanding why the performance gap occurs is a step in reducing actual and predicted energy performance in buildings.

Purpose The present study aims to explore the influence of green marketing functions (green activities, corporate communication of green activities and green image) on corporate image in the hospitality sector. Further, the study tries to explore the consumer’s intention to visit the hotels practicing green marketing. Design/methodology/approach Using snowball sampling approach, a total of 220 usable responses were obtained from the consumer via an internet survey. Data were analyzed using structural equation modeling to evaluate the strength of relationship and model fit. Findings The findings show that green/eco-friendly activities and green image significantly influence the corporate image of the hotel, which in turn results into significant positive impact over consumer’s intention to visit the hotel. No significant influence of corporate communication of green activities on corporate image of the hotels was found, which may be because of the low level of communication of green practices by the hotels in India. Practical implications The findings offer insight to the managers regarding the impact of green marketing practices adopted by the hotels on their corporate image which in turn results into increased visit/revisit intention. Originality/value The study deals with the topic “the influence of green marketing on corporate image”, which has received scant attention by researchers. The paper attempts to provide empirical evidence in this area. The study yields several implications that can be helpful for managers while devising green marketing strategies for the hospitality sector. The study is among the initial studies exploring the influence of green marketing on corporate image in the Indian context.

A large number of existing building stock in India was built before the implementation of government guidelines mandating the Green Building Codes. These buildings have been operating with various inefficiencies pertaining to their resource consumption and emissions. Literature suggests that the option of functional retrofitting of building has a potential to reduce this inefficiency by up to 50%. This paper investigates this potential by analysing actual cases of functional retrofitting of buildings (for achieving greater operational efficiency) in Indian context. The environmental impact analysis in this study includes the impact categories of primary energy demand, global warming potential, abiotic depletion potential, ozone depletion potential and water resource consumption for both pre-retrofit and post-retrofit scenario of building. The results are then correlated to the initial cost of functional retrofitting for each case in order to identify the inter-relationship and trend with respect to the level of intervention opted for the cases.

Since the late twentieth century, the construction industry has seen significant transformation. Because the demand for housing is expanding in tandem with population growth, it must be met with all available resources. The energy resources available to humanity, on the other hand, are limited and fast dwindling. In the long run, this will have a huge impact on the situation because the demand cannot be met with the available resources. As a result, resources will be depleted to a large level, causing serious problems. There are several alternatives for dealing with this scenario. Green building construction is a viable option that can be employed instead of traditional construction because it is more energy efficient. In general, the cost of constructing a green building is more than that of a conventional building, but the overall cost of the building, including upkeep, is lower. This research study focuses on the numerous facts and trends available for study about green construction, as well as the comparison between sustainable and conventional building.

The continuous increase of emissions of greenhouse gas and mankind’s reliance on exploiting fossil energy accumulation generated an urge to enhance the efficiency of buildings. The main aim of the power industry is to develop a building which consumes least possible energy and to produce low level gas. Consequently, green and energy proficient buildings such as nearly zero energy building (nZEB) has become a global trend. There are various design performance inputs and the prediction by which one can optimize the energy consumption to attain zero energy building. This paper mainly focuses on the optimization of the energy consumption of nZEB. This concept of nZEB has been implemented in various developed countries at a mass level, but India has not taken any significant measures towards achieving the zero-energy concept. This paper investigates significant measures that are currently practising in different countries to achieve a goal of zero energy building and then provide a suggestive measure that should be implemented in India.

In India the demand for housing is ever increasing and hence there is an increase in demand for building materials. Providing affordable housing is a challenge for developing country like India. India have an shortage of millions houses. Now days, more than 17 million retired shipping containers are stacked on the port worldwide. Container building still facing the various challenges. To avoid this challenges GFRG panels use as a Walls and Roofs of container house. So, Container house using GFRG panels provide an adequate solutions to the various problems. Building materials which are energy efficient strong and durable at an affordable cost are in great demand GFRG panels are of much relevance in India where there is tremendous need for cost effective mass scale and rapid housing. They are not only eco-friendly, but also resistant to termites, heat, rot, corrosion, water and fire. Concrete infill with vertical reinforcement rods enhances its vertical and lateral load capabilities. Comparative studies of GFRG and conventional buildings have been carried out in the present investigation. Rapid wall panel provides speedier construction and leads to environmental protection. Subsequently, it is a perfect option building material to replace bricks or concrete blocks. GFRG wall is a green product which can erect a building fast in prefabricated method. This paper highlights the positive aspects of GFRG panels with respect to Time, cost of construction Strength, affordability, energy efficiency over the conventional construction materials and its suitability in the Indian Housing Scenario. This research aims in providing adequate shelter for all individuals that is one among the recent challenges long faced by the developing countries. Economical plan and development of structures, utilizing green material is an option in contrast to exhaustion of totals and increment in cost of concrete. Glass fiber reinforced gypsum panel (GFRG) is a green material, which is a rapid wall construction method and a cost effective construction process. With the end goal to enhance the productivity, and decrease of waste, the lean the development has been presented as another administration rule for better execution. In India, the usage of lean administration in the development industry is a noteworthy errand. Because of the absence of consideration and uneducated towards the lean administration guideline the proprietor, contractual worker, engineers and so on are as yet creating a stage to actualize this standard in their task. This venture primarily centers on to recognize the potential outcomes of execution of lean administration in the development industry. This paper shows the probabilities of compelling usage of lean administration guideline in the development industry, which can definitely diminish the use of time, increment the nature of work, and benefit rate by wiping out the wastage of materials. It finally, points in giving lodging to all classes of people, in this way enhancing the economy of India. Going through this study, it will explore & analyze some projects and case studies from many points of views, Geometrically, Architecturally, structurally, financially, and of course environmentally. The deployment of containers as building modules has grown in popularity over the past years due to their inherent strength, modular construction, and relatively low cost. Finally, conclusions are going to be drawn on the important worth of lean construction against the traditional practice with consideration for the future benefits within collaborative technological models.

To accomplish United Nations’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030, adoption of Green HRM (GHRM) is gaining importance. In recent times, sustainability and environment protection has become an inevitable step to be considered while framing future policies and strategies towards GHRM. Almost all sectors and industries are integrating sustainable environmental processes in the day-to-day work process, one of which is adoption of green HRM practices. The present study is a detailed synthesis of recent literature from 2019- 2021 conducted with the purpose of evaluating the recent developments in adoption of GHRM implementation in various processes, related awareness and challenges, limitations and the impact of COVID-19 pandemic, if any, on implementation of Green HRM (GHRM) process in the work process. Further, the primary data was collected using In-Depth Interviews (IDIs) of one senior HR professionals from each of the four service industries namely, healthcare, banking/financial consultancy, HR consultancy and education. The purpose of IDIs was to analyze the adoption, readiness, challenges and the preparedness of GHRM practices to support environment friendly and sustainable utilization of resources in organization. Results of our study showed that Green HRM is in a very nascent stage in India and the awareness is extremely low. Though GHRM has a huge potential of application across the various HR processes, but the promotion and incentives from the government and industry leaders is lagging. These factors lead to a very poor adoption of GHRM in Indian industries. Moreover, studies have reported that individual green goals and personal moral norms of employees are the determinants and predictors of GHRM. Further, a bottom-to-top approach is recommended so that the employees are involved in boosting the adoption of green management practices.

The world is undergoing rapid urbanization and experiencing its negative impacts, often due to the loss of urban green infrastructure. This study focuses on the green infrastructure of Varanasi city, India, and analyses current tree species diversity, and carbon storage in aboveground and belowground biomass and soil. The study calculated the biomass of urban green infrastructure because it serves as a carbon stock reservoir. As random sampling, data were collected from 24 sample plots across various urban green infrastructure sites via rigorous fieldwork. The biomass was then recorded using a non-destructive approach and a standard equation by King et al.2006. The diversity of tree species was recorded across urban green infrastructure sites, and was found to be higher in the BHU site, and lower in the MA site. The Pielou’s evenness index and Margellef’s richness index were found to be higher in the BHU site, while they were found to be lower in UPAC and MA sites, respectively. Aboveground biomass and total carbon stock were found to be high in the BLW site, with values of 1939.84 ton/ha and 7806 ton/ha, respectively, with trees having a larger girth circumference being the primary contributors. The findings of this study prove a better understanding of tree species diversity, biomass, and carbon stock of different green infrastructure sites of Varanasi city and generate evidence on how urban green space preservation and green infrastructure development may help to the countries' green economic transformation and sustainable, resilient, and low-carbon cities.

Purpose Building on the theory of planned behavior (TPB), the purpose of this paper is to understand the green buying behavior of educated millennials in India. The study also attempts to extend the TPB by including two additional variables, environmental concern (EC) and willingness to pay premium, in the framework. Design/methodology/approach Data were collected from 202 students from various departments of an institute of higher education in India. The proposed model was tested with the help of structural equation modeling using bootstrapping procedures in SPSS AMOS 24. Findings Except for the direct association between subjective norm (SN) and purchase intention (PI), the study provided support for the TPB framework. EC was found to exert an indirect influence on green PI through its effect on attitude, SN and perceived behavioral control. Willingness to pay premium moderated the relationship of PI with green buying behavior. PIs were found to successfully translate into purchase behavior (PB). Practical implications This research by promoting an understanding on the factors affecting the green buying behavior of educated millennials in India will assist green marketers to tap the tremendous potential inherent in this market segment by formulating customized market plans and strategies. Originality/value The study extends the existing literature by validating and extending the TPB framework in a unique cultural context and advancing the understanding of underlying psychological mechanisms and boundary conditions of the relationship between PIs and PBs.

The agricultural sector’s contribution to India’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP) has dropped from 17.4% in 2006-07 to 14.2% in 2010-11i, while the manufacturing sector has underperformed, accounting for only 20% of GDP, due to high interest rates, infrastructure bottlenecks, slow decision-making by the government, and weak domestic demand Furthermore, the service sector, which accounts for nearly 65% of GDP, has also been losing its momentum due to segments like the banking and real estate facing demand and investment constraints. Furthermore, the environment has suffered gravely with the economic progress as from 1990 to 2008, India’s GDP per capita rose by an impressive 120% leading to the natural capital to decline by 31 % in the same period. Adding to that, currently India is operating on almost twice its bio-capacity; indicating that the population’s demand from the ecosystem exceeds the capacity of that ecosystem to regenerate the resources. To ensure that inter-linkages between the economic, societal, and environmental aspects of development are overarching, India needs vital transitions. A green economy strengthens pro-poor economic growth by building up natural capital and secures livelihood options of the poorIn the light of the above Context, this paper attempts to understand the key sectors for intervention in India and have emerged as the main players in undertaking green initiatives. These sectors have contributed to economic growth of the nation while simultaneously causing detrimental effects on the environment. Section 2 of the paper makes an analysis of the six sectors that have the potential of contributing towards achieving the balance along the three pillars of sustainability. Section 3 further analyses the dominant barriers faced by some of the initiatives and how they can possibly be overcome. Finally it the foundation for further research and understanding the viable agents of changes for bringing about this transition.

The progress of Indoor Environmental Quality (IEQ) research in school buildings has increased profusely in the last two decades and the interest in this area is still growing worldwide. IEQ in classrooms impacts the comfort, health, and productivity of students as well as teachers. This article systematically discusses IEQ parameters related to studies conducted in Indian school classrooms during the last fifteen years. Real-time research studies conducted on Indoor Air Quality (IAQ), Thermal Comfort (TC), Acoustic Comfort (AcC), and Visual Comfort (VC) in Indian school classrooms from July 2006 to March 2021 are considered to gain insight into the existing research methodologies. This review article indicates that IEQ parameter studies in Indian school buildings are tortuous, strewn, inadequate, and unorganized. There is no literature review available on studies conducted on IEQ parameters in Indian school classrooms. The results infer that in India, there is no well-established method to assess the indoor environmental condition of classrooms in school buildings to date. Indian school classrooms are bleak and in dire need of energy-efficient modifications that maintain good IEQ for better teaching and learning outcomes. The prevailing COVID-19 Pandemic, Artificial Intelligence (AI), National Education Policy (NEP), Sick Building Syndrome (SBS), Internet of Things (IoT), and Green Schools (GS) are also discussed to effectively link existing conditions with the future of IEQ research in Indian school classrooms.

Sustainability is a crucial issue since the last decade as the building sector, directly or indirectly cause a considerable portion of the annual environmental deterioration. Due to increase in houses’ demand, leading to consumption of more resources, energy and raw materials which are directly responsible for the rise in carbon content in air and which are harmful to human health and environment. To overcome these various environmental impacts, we need to build with more sustainable materials which will reduce the impacts on environment. Design of a building is essential and it becomes crucial when we talk about affordable housing. [1] India needs not only affordable housing, but also homes that are energy efficient and designed using sustainable techniques. The green buildings design should thus begin with the use and selection of eco-friendly materials with related or better features than traditional building materials. [2] The paper aims at sustainable development in affordable high-rise buildings with fast track techniques and procedures to reduce overall time and cost of the project.

There has been much debate over the extent to which economic growth reduces poverty and augments human development among the poor. This paper describes ongoing research using survey data on the Green Revolution experience in India that focuses on this issue. The research is based on a general-equilibrium model of labour markets for adults and children that differentiates households by whether they own land and incorporates a public sector that chooses the amount of school building. The empirical results suggest, consistent with the model, that expectations of improvements in agricultural productivity increase the schooling of children in landed households and reduce schooling in landless households, in part because of the operation of the child labour market, as landless child labour is used to replace landed child labour lost due to increased child school attendance in landed households. The results also show, however, that school construction in India was undertaken at higher levels in areas in which there were expectations of greater future productivity increases, and that the closer proximity of schools differentially benefited landless households. Thus school building policy in India tended to offset the adverse distributional consequences of agricultural technological change in the early stages of the Green Revolution. The allocation of schools, however, did not fully offset the incentives for landless households to reduce schooling investments. The perverse correlation between human development and income growth observed among the poor landless households in India at the initial stages of the Green Revolution, thus, was not due to lack of responsiveness of public resources but to the lack of a return to schooling in the non-farm sector.

Purpose of the study: Due to high solar radiation and extreme heat gain in composite climates, the envelope or the façade of the building becomes an essential part to modulate the heat transfer and temperature in the indoor environment. A passive sustainable approach to tackle heat gain is by adopting green living facades as the exterior skin. The objective of this research is to identify the potential of green living walls in modulating temperature and relative humidity in the composite climate of India.
Methodology: This research is based on data collection in the form of a Case Study. The paper evaluates the difference of variation in temperature and relative humidity of two façade samples of the same building, one with a “green living facade” and one without it.
Main Findings: The research aimed to justify that a green living facade may act as a passive strategy for composite climates. The result demonstrated that there is a significant temperature reduction between the ambient air temperature and indoor room temperature. The result also showed a notable change between ambient air temperature and the gap between the green living façade and the surface of the wall.
Implications: Significant drop in indoor ambient temperature in composite climate may save energy for cooling or heating demands.
Application of this study: This is a pilot study in order to carry out the main study for a similar application in order to categorize this as a passive sustainable façade strategy.
Novelty/Originality of this study: The study is one of its kind attempt to investigate the impact of vertical green walls on thermal comfort in the composite climate of India.
