Planet-warming emissions from buildings put climate goals at risk
By Thin Lei Win. ROME, Dec 16 (Thomson Reuters Foundation) Planet-warming carbon dioxide emissions from buildings and construction are jeopardising Many construction procedures, such as drilling and grinding, can produce high level of particulates that can be inhaled into lung, and consequently lead to physical Mitigating construction dust pollution: state of the art and the way

Contribution of the construction industry to pollution
Construction is perhaps the most important economic and social activity in human life. The contribution of the construction sector to the gross domestic product (GDP) of Pakistan is around 14-15%. In advanced countries, the industry contributes 23% to air pollution, 50% to climate change, 40% to drinking water pollution and 50% to landfill Air pollution is the largest environmental killer, with approximately 8 million deaths annually attributed to air pollution, predominantly in developing countries. 4.2 million of these deaths are a result of exposure to ambient (outdoor) air pollution, and 3.8 million are attributed to the result of household exposure to smoke from dirty cookstoves and fuels [2].Air Quality in the Built Environment World Green Building Council

Pollution is the largest environmental cause of disease and premature death. Pollution causes more than 9 million premature deaths, the majority of them due to air pollution. That’s several times more deaths than from AIDS, tuberculosis, and malaria combined. Global health crises, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, are reminders of the Under the Water Pollution Control Ordinance, Cap. 358, discharge of polluted waters into stormwater drains is not permitted, discharging wastewater from construction activities into sewers or elsewhere should comply with the terms and conditions of General Building Construction Environmental Protection

Construction Causes Major Pollution. Here's How We Can Build
Construction will have to expand rapidly to keep pace. But in that same period, greenhouse gas emissions must be cut sharply; emissions must drop 7.6% every year this decade to hold warming below 1.5 degrees Celsius (2.7 degrees Fahrenheit) — or 2.7% each year to hold it below 2 degrees C (3.6 degrees Fahrenheit) — according to TYPES OF ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION IN CONSTRUCTION SITES Noise pollution: Large-scale application of construction machinery is the fundamental cause of noise pollution during construction, such as improperly installed construc-tion machines.

Fugitive or nuisance dust, mainly from demolition, also adds to local levels of particle pollution. From September 2015 the London Mayor introduced new standards to reduce pollution emissions from the construction industry with tighter standards proposed from September 2020 to support the London Ultra Low Emission Zone.Air pollution is a global concern, especially in cities and urban areas, and has many implications for human health and for the environment.

Many construction activities generate fine particles and severely threaten the physical health of construction workers. Although many dust control measures are implemented in the industry, the Clean construction practices not only improve air quality but also serve the construction sector, and the country’s economy, by limiting the need for penalties and bans. Globally, air pollution is one of the biggest environmental risks to health, claiming over 1.67 million lives in 2019, in India alone.Why Urban India Needs a Clean Construction Approach

Managing Construction Development Risks to the Environment
Construction is one of the major contributors to environmental impacts carrying pollution risks, typically classified as air pollution, waste pollution, noise pollution, and water pollution. Activities in construction are complex, highly dispersed, and resource-demanding. The industry contributes to the loss of important natural assets The pollution is even greater when it emanates from a large-scale exploitation of rocks, petroleum, and limestone used in different construction works. In most oil-producing states in African countries, vandals have taken to illegal bursting of oil pipelines, and siphoning oil for refining in illegal refineries.Environmental pollution: causes, effects, and the remedies

Environmental and Health Impacts of Air Pollution: A Review
Moreover, air pollution seems to have various malign health effects in early human life, such as respiratory, cardiovascular, mental, and perinatal disorders ( 3 ), leading to infant mortality or chronic disease in adult age ( 6 ). National reports have mentioned the increased risk of morbidity and mortality ( 1 ).Construction of roads has several environmental impacts like deforestation, loss of habitat and habitat fragmentation into small patches, erosion on the road surface, increased sediment runoff during precipitation, pollution of nearby water resources, and slope failure in certain cases (Caliskan 2013).Soil Contamination from Construction Projects SpringerLink

Control Dust Pollution on Construction Sites: What Governments
Dust pollution is a key issue that contractors ought to address in the sphere of sustainable construction. Governments on behalf of the public assume part of the responsibilities for minimizing dust emissions on construction sites. However, the measures that are useful for governments to fulfill such a responsibility have not been The findings also reveal that majority of the contractors are worried for all environmental problems as mentioned in Table 1; 63% for air pollution, 56.2% for deforestation, 55.4% for lack of separate construction waste landfill, 54.6% for soil erosion, 53.1% for noise pollution, 50.8% for both water pollution and lack of sanitary landfill, 49.Environmental Problems in Malaysia: A View of Contractors`
