The health of the climate is getting worse day by day all due to air pollutants, especially black carbon. Global warming is increasing rapidly and the fourth biggest carbon emitter in the world is India. GHGs are the major pollutant in the environment and the construction industry is considered 19% responsible for it. But especially in a developing country like India, infrastructure is a basic need without which the country may not survive. Around 40% of the carbon footprint is generated by construction and buildings together due to various processes like lighting, cooling, and heating of building materials. By the year 2050, the carbon emissions from buildings are set to aim at zero as per the world resources Institute paper Paris Agreement. But as per today's scenario, there is not even one per cent of the total buildings that can help in achieving the target of zero.

Then the question still arises about how the target can be achieved, as the construction sector is the most crucial part of any nation that helps a nation to grow and its activities cannot be shut down. Reecocefe has the answer to this question. Designing an energy-efficient building that consumes less energy and using carbon-free renewable energy in place of fossil fuels used at construction sites are the two most significant steps taken by the company.

In any construction project, there are two types of co2 emissions that are direct and indirect. Both are equally harmful to the environment. Processes such as extraction of raw material, manufacturing installation, and demolition lead to climatic degradation. Reecocefe ensures that it reduces as many emissions as it can so that it can offset the minimal carbon emissions generated by the company. Some of the crucial steps taken by Reecocefe in this direction are using AAC blocks in place of red bricks that reduce fly ash, using environmentally friendly building materials, purchasing carbon offsets, and minimizing the use of fossil fuels by generating renewable energy.

The issue of increasing carbon footprint is not related to one country but it is a global issue due to which a conference was held in Glasgow in which India presented its “panchamrit” to achieve five major climate targets. It includes achieving the target of net zero emissions by 2070. Up to 2030, India wants to fulfil its 50% energy requirements from renewable energy. Up to 1 billion tons of total projected carbon emissions should be reduced by 2030, 45% reduction of carbon intensity by 2030 over 2005 levels and to reach the target by 2030 of 500GW of non-fossil energy capacity.

Recycling is what is promoted by Reecocefe so that materials can get a second life along with reducing debris. Bulk materials are purchased by Reecocefe, which produces transportation and ultimately reduces carbon emissions in the environment. Projects are designed within budget for the clients by Reecocefe by using as much as recyclable construction materials as they can. Buildings that feature daylighting, additional insulation, LED lighting, and efficient equipment are designed by Reecocefe.

Investments are made by the company to offer carbon offset options to the client, such as wind farms, tree plantings, geothermal power plants, clean drinking water, and solar projects to combat greenhouse gases.

No doubt that investment in energy-efficient building materials has been increased by 16% in the year 2021 up to USD 237 billion, but still, as per new reports, CO2 emissions do not decrease. Reecocefe produces energy-efficient solutions by working on three main pillars that is reuse, recycle, and reduce. The company is working in every way best possible to reduce the carbon footprint and wants to help the country to achieve its target as Reecocefe believes that there is no better future until we make it possible.
