[Audio] WORLD ENVIRONMENT DAY Eco-friendly Housing.

[Audio] With the inevitable increase in the housing crises and global climate change, it is more than ever essential to reduce our energy consumption and choose construction materials wisely. Eco-Friendly building material is a type of material that doesn't harm the environment, whether in its production, use or disposal and can easily be recycled. Using Eco-Friendly materials is hugely beneficial in the long run. Building a green home reduces carbon emissions significantly and saves energy, which results in saving money on energy bills..

[Audio] Waste materials are a major environmental problem, which is a threat to the environment. It is important to reuse these materials and dispose of them. Waste can be used in the construction industry in two ways: by reusing (reuse components) and recycling (processing waste into raw materials used in the production of building materials). RE-USE AND RECYCLING.
