Abstract
(1) What is the definition of "Green Building"? (2) Can we say, "less new building protects the environment more"? (3) Are there any buildings in the world considered 100% green? (4) Other than building materials, is there any other way to achieve a "green" classification? (5) Can you explain what a "sustainable building" is? (6) So, how is Hong Kong progressing with Green/Sustainable building? (7) So what is the problem regarding walled buildings in Hong Kong? Is the mistake in planning or design? And are these not environmentally friendly? (8) What is your role in relation to "green building"? (9) There are a lot of buildings that claimed to be "green" or "environmentally friendly", but is there any checking mechanism to supervise those buildings to make sure thay really observe the requirements that qualify them to be categorised this way. Where can get more information about them and these claims? (1) 可以簡單地說明什麼是環保建築的定義? (2) 是不是減少建築就可以說成是更環保呢? (3) 世上有沒有100%的環保建築物? (4) 除了在建築上使用環保材料,在哪一方面也可以達到環保效益? (5) 可否說明什麼是可持續建設? (6) 香港的環保/可持續建設的發展如何? (7) 現時香港出現的屏風樓是什麼的一回事?是規劃上的錯誤還是設計上的問題呢?這又是不是一個不環保的建築呢? (8) 可以說一說你在環保建築上扮演的是那一類角色? (9) 現在很多建築物也聲稱自己是環保建設,哪有沒有一個機制去監察這些建築物又是否符合標準呢?在那裡可取得更多的資料呢? (10) 你希望「環保建築大?」可達致一個怎樣的目標?
