Whether you’re a climate change sceptic or a ‘we-need-to-do-something-now’ convert, it’s clear that architects, designers, builders and consumers are all increasingly concerned about the environmental impact of buildings – both in construction and operation.

The Smarter Green Book offers a detailed overview of the current push for sustainable development and how to go about attaining a greener house and neighbourhood. An interesting and useful free guide to sustainable construction, The Smarter Green Book looks at subjects ranging from embodied energy to the impact of manufacture and construction, whilst outlining the relative environmental strengths of fibre cement, brick and other materials. The book offers climate specific design strategies that give design essentials and best practice options.
