Green building trends Global green building market continues soaking up large market share, doubling every three years. A trend that, in very few decades, has become a trillion-dollar industry. The increasing demand for sustainable and healthy buildings is likely to continue to do so in the future, according to recent studies [2]. Green Public Procurement policies (GPP) and the rapidly dissemination of voluntary green building certification programs for green buildings are among the key drivers that have been underpinning this growth, along with the increasingly stringent carbon regulatory requirements and the greater societal demand for greener and healthier space to live, work and relax in.
