Sustainable construction is the response, in built form, to the concept of sustainable development.

To be sustainable, design and construction will need to meet 3 key criteria:

Social:

meet the changing needs of society

Economic:

framework for whole life costing and best value

Environmental:

'a green agenda globally, locally & internally'

"values and ethics are the foundation of sustainability. At the constellation of environmental ethics' center is the development of knowledge that leads to a higher quality of mind and being."
