The environment and its conservation is on top of everyone's mind at the moment. While there is a lot of focus on trying to get back green cover by trying to plant more saplings, there are many things you can do, to do your bit for the environment. This can start fundamentally with your home. Builders today have realised this and consumers are lapping up the offerings with a lot of gusto.
Says, Harsha Sridhar, Chief Anchor - Design Cell, BCIL, "For example, a mud wall-based, thatch-roofed structure of a farmer is the most sustainable, for it uses the least.'
"We have completed three projects. BCIL Trans Indus on Kanakapura Road, BCIL T Zed Homes in Whitefield and BCIL TownsEnd and BCIL Collective in Yelahanka. We have initiated some extremely core environment initiatives in Coorg (Little Acre, a rainforest patch protection initiative which is unique to the world) and Gaia, a holiday homes project in Goa that doesn't use any laterite blocks at all in a region where no one builds without laterite," says Sridhar.
