Green Workspace Solutions – More Than A Buzzword?
A growing number of commercial property developers and socially responsible
corporate tenants are turning to Green building technologies and sustainability
initiatives to save energy and to cut down on environmental pollutants. Singapore is no exception.
According to the Economic Intelligence Unit’s (EIU) Asian Green City Index,
Singapore is the only city which is ranked ‘Well Above Average’. Hong Kong,
Tokyo and Seoul are ranked ‘Above Average’ whilst most Chinese cities are
ranked ‘Average’, and Indian cities are ranked ‘Below Average’.
In the context of Asia, Singapore is viewed as a pioneer in terms of environmental consciousness by incorporating green planning in mega-building structures.
