Environmental Sustainability in Real Estate Development

Implementing Environmental Sustainability Strategies in Real Estate Development in Developing Countries: Ghana's Case

Beschreibung

Conventional real estate development is a physical development approach for real estate that causes excessive depletion of environmental resources while contributing to carbon emissions in Ghana. In examining Ghana's real estate developers' adoption of environmental sustainability strategies (ESS), a content analysis of empirical studies on environmental sustainability in real estate development (RED) was conducted, and attributes of ESS namely sustainable site planning and management, construction materials and resources efficiency, energy efficiency, and water efficiency were identified. Some developers were purposively sampled, and primary data was collected through survey questionnaires to determine the major attributes of ESS adopted in Ghana and the main stakeholders influencing their adoption to improve environmental sustainability levels of real estate project.
