Abstract: In the wake of escalating climate change and environmental degradation, green building technologies have emerged as essential strategies in sustainable development. This seminar explores the relationship between built environments and the natural ecosystem, emphasizing the pivotal role of buildings in energy consumption, carbon emissions, and global warming. The study categorizes green technologies that enhance energy efficiency, occupant comfort, and environmental performance through passive and active systems such as thermal mass utilization, natural ventilation, stack effect, daylighting, and high-performance glazing. It also underlines adaptive strategies to respond to climate projections using mitigation and resilience-based approaches. The report introduces a structured methodology for integrating these technologies into new and existing buildings, highlighting key principles like integrated design, responsive planning, performance benchmarking, and climate adaptation. By bridging theoretical frameworks with practical design applications, this research reinforces the potential of green building strategies to minimize ecological footprints while ensuring productivity, health, and comfort within the built environment.
