Sustainable design: Technology, Works, Applications & Economy

Environmentally sustainable design (also called environmentally conscious design, eco-design and related terms) is an approach to designing products, buildings, landscapes, infrastructure and services so that they reduce environmental impacts while supporting human health, comfort and well-being. It applies ecological sustainability to decisions about…
