the green future: architecture + sustainability; green architecture and impacts of it on urban planning and urban design

green architecture, or green design, is an approach to building that minimizes harmful effects on human health and the environment. the “green” architect or designer attempts to safeguard air, water, and earth by choosing eco-friendly building materials and construction practices. so, green architecture is building and structure design philosophy that aims at minimal use of non-renewable and/or polluting materials and resources in construction and use of a facility. today, architecture finds itself at a crossroads. building materials and new construction, along with the operation and maintenance of buildings, account for a significant sum of the world's greenhouse gas emissions. faced with this fact, how are architects to responsibly pursue the act (and art) of building without further deteriorating the planet's environmental make-up or depleting its resources? what forms of high and low technology can be developed to curtail the injurious side of building? can good or even great architecture be sustainable? in this paper discuss the problem such as: the future is green: architecture + sustainability and have been surveyed green architecture and  impacts of it on urban planing and urban design.
