Eco-friendly homes are a latest trend emerging in real estate business. Builders and developers are concentrating in constructing Eco-friendly homes or building. In India, the demand for houses, apartments, shopping malls, commercial complexes etc. are on the rise. The demand for Eco-friendly homes or apartments is rising in major cities such as Bangalore, Chennai, Delhi-NCR, Mumbai and Hyderabad.  

 

Eco-friendly homes are normally built with the aim of reducing environmental waste, minimizing pollution, and reducing negative effects on human health.

 A major goal of eco-friendly home or building is reducing the consumption of natural resources as much as possible. Many countries today are adopting green building standards for all designers and builders of eco-friendly homes.
