Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The buildings and construction sectors are responsible for 30% of global final energy consumption (IEA, 2023) and 37% of global greenhouse gases emissions (United Nations Environment Programme, 2023). Several environmental actions, policies, initiatives, and practices related to the construction and property sectors (e.g., environmental tax, green building rating, and green financing) have been introduced and implemented in both developed and emerging countries.
This Special Issue aims to offer comprehensive insights into the effect of green activities within the construction and property sectors on diverse economic, environmental, and social indicators. Authors are encouraged to utilize data at various levels, including household, firm, city, state, or national, to conduct rigorous analyses. Through this investigation, we seek to advance our understanding of how environmental actions, policies, initiatives, and practices related to the construction and property sectors influence economic performance, environmental sustainability, and social well-being, thus providing valuable knowledge for policymakers, researchers, and practitioners striving towards creating a more sustainable future.
Possible topics for this Special Issue include, but are not limited to, the following:
- The impact of green property financing/investment/development on macroeconomic indicators;
- The impact of green property financing/investment/development/management on energy consumption and pollution;
- The impact of green property financing/investment on households’ financial and mental well-being;
- The impact of green property financing/investment on financial institutions’ performance;
- The impact of green activities in the construction industry on workers’ mental health and productivity;
- The impact of green rating on residential on commercial property valuation;
- The progress of green Proptech in developed and emerging countries;
- The progress of green property management in developed and emerging countries.
