The environmental impact of construction contributes to global warming. Construction projects emit large amounts of carbon dioxide and methane. Infrastructure developments cause pollution and produce waste. As the output of the construction industry multiplies, so can its damaging effects.
Buildings have a big impact on the environment. The construction and renovation of buildings uses precious natural resources. Then, when in use, buildings are responsible for a significant proportion of all our carbon emissions. Energy used in the construction and use of our homes and other buildings accounts for around half of the UK''s total carbon dioxide emissions . Under the Climate

This article attempts to discuss briefly the Environmental issues in the construction industry. so as to come up with a very material efficient building with least environmental impact. Land Conservation. The land is a finite resource it can be exhausted. All construction is realized on land. Land use, therefore, poses a major challenge as other activities like farming compete
The environmental impact of landfilling CDW is estimated to increase % if the business as usual (BaU) landfilling continues to the year 2025. Recycling will reduce % of total damages
Depending on the type of construction, the waste that is created can be of different sorts and can have a harmful effect on different parts of the environment. The soil is almost always contaminated to some degree. In cases where the construction is done on water, partially or completely, there is almost always a severe level of water contamination. Some of these waste
Construction is the industry that has the largest impact on nature and the environment. It often has injurious effects upon nature, which could with reasonable action be minimized.

Environment has been defined as all the external and internal influences on the construction project. These include social political and technological aspects. The variables used to measure the impact of the environment on construction projects are the social, economic, physical, political, industrial and technological advancement. Analysis
The construction industry must minimize and manage the generation of pollution that may affect elements of the environment. To ensure that all reasonable and practicable measures have been taken, attention must be given to (a) the nature of the pollution or potential pollution and sensitivity of the receiving environment; (b) the financial implications of various measures that might have to be

Environmental impact on construction. Effects on ecosystem. As shown in Table 7 the respondents ranked "dust generation" is in the first position with RII= This means that dust is the most important impact that affects the environment in Gaza strip. There are three types of dusts, these are: Dust because of vehicles: vehicles entrance and exist to the site is very
· Construction firm''s biggest negative impact on the environment is caused by the burning of fossil fuels, like gas and diesel. Every construction project results in these gas emissions of carbon dioxide, methane and other waste products that pollute the air and are believed to contribute to global warming. In order to limit fuel usage:
With the construction sector experiencing a resurgence in growth, it''s bound to have a detrimental impact on the environment. According to the Green Building Council, the construction sector uses more than 400 million tons of material a year, many of which has an adverse impact on the environment.
Considering environmental issues in construction and life cycle, some only focus on evaluation of products in terms of waste disposal. This is too narrow. A product''s "use phase" can account for as much as 90 percent of a product''s impact on the environment. Consider insulation. A host of factors Multiple Attribute Considerations) and influences of a product''s impact on society
The construction working environment involves multiparty participation. Needs and constraints in a multiparty working situation bring complications in project management. These can further develop into conflicts and disputes, which bring cost consequences, direct and indirect, to clients and contractors (Yates, 2002). The project team members have to meet client''s needs on one hand and to
