The threat

To fight against climate change, builders, planners, designers, and architects urgently need to shift gears and implement sustainable designs and practices. Buildings, be it residential or commercial, are an alarmingly dominant source of almost 40% of all greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs), according to Architecture 2030, a prominent non-profit research organization in the US. Add the other infrastructure and activities, such as transportation, associated with buildings, and this number spikes. The United Nations has called for countries to achieve net-zero by 2050. In other words, any emissions in the air would need to be balanced by removing CO2.

The solution – design and build Green!

In light of the grave threat to the environment and subsequently to all forms of life on this planet, building green then becomes critical to our very existence, health, and well-being. Green buildings are about straddling the structure’s entire ecosystem – planning, design, construction, operations, and its end-of-life impact on the environment. This entails looking at options that save energy and water, do not emit harmful GHGs, and are recyclable or sustainable. When a structure does all of this while also retaining the creation of vegetated land areas, it reduces GHGs and thus aids in the fight against climate change. By incorporating all the above elements, you contribute to the UN 17-point charter on Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) across many parameters which we will see in this article.

How the community will help mitigate the hazards caused by climate change?

WE ARE ONE: A community who fight against climate change.

"An understanding of the natural world and what's in it is a source of not only a great curiosity but great fulfillment." - David Attenborough

We all know that there have been changes during the years that we have lived on Earth, changes that are visible to all. Nevertheless, one continues to ignore it. When will we take action against it? NOW. Here are some strategies that community members can employ to lessen the risks brought on by climate change.

💚🌴🌳🌲🌱🍀✅♻️ In September, I went to California to catch up with our team and check in on our communities during uncertain times. The forest 🌳 fires 🔥 were very strong and the smoke was invading San Francisco rapidly. The sky turned orange 🍊and it was impossible to breath without swallowing and taking in dust from the smoke in our lungs. Climate change is real and we need to act. 🍀🍀🍀🍀 As a community and company leaders, we are defining the world of tomorrow and shaping the world 🗺 the next generation will live in. We stayed positive and as a team we decided to start donating 1 tree for every night being booked on our platform anywhere in the world. We partner with NGOs we donate money to and they plant trees on #SerendipiaLife’s behalf. 🌳🌳🌳🌳 This is a small step for us but a big step towards inspiring a global generation of #Solutionners to take action and regenerate our only planet 🌍 — Mother Earth. 🌱🌱🌱🌱 Let’s reforest the planet, 1 community and 1 night at a time. By choosing to stay at Serendipia community, you take a stand, and make a choice to fight against climate change. 🙏✌️🙌 We are catalysing worldwide collaboration for global peace ☮️.
