Would you pay little extra for energy efficient house?

BrixResearch Moderator says: As the world grapples with energy issues, real estate developers are experimenting with techniques that help them save energy and maintenance costs of property. A lot is being done on this front in India too. Many energy efficient buildings or ‘green buildings’ (as they are popularly called) are operational in the country. Presently about 65 buildings have the green rating in India.

Energy efficient buildings may cost little extra than the conventional buildings but the long-term maintenance is comparatively low. Would you pay little extra to install energy efficient features in your house?

Vatika Earth Walk concludes successfully

BrixBlog Moderator says: Vatika Earth Walk – held on March 28 – turned out to be a huge success. This eco-walk was organised in Gurgaon, Haryana by property portal Magicbricks.com as a prelude to the Earth Day events.

More than five hundred citizens turned up to participate in the walk from Vatika Towers at Sector 57 to Sector 56 Main Chowk. The Municipal Commissioner of Gurgaon Rajiv Sharma formally inaugurated the event and led the walk. He exhorted the citizens in making Gurgaon a clean and green city.

Did you participate in this walk? Were you a part of any such green initiative on the Earth Day?
