Trying out more sustainability

Construction is responsible for around 40 percent of all greenhouse gas emissions. That is why, before every construction project, questions arise such as: Do we really have to tear everything down and build anew? Or is it better to examine the existing building, renovate it and adapt it to our changing needs? Every building requires such analyses and decisions, which have a direct impact on the environment.
