Rapid urbanisation
Rapid growth in gross domestic product (GDP) and an increase in disposable income are amongst some of the direct benefits of urban economic development. Urbanisation triggers changes in demographics, and this is characterised by population size, urban population growth, and the shifting of its age composition. Because of the huge size of the population in Asia, the world is facing more uncertainty regarding sustainability as a result of rapid urbanisation. Rapid urbanisation would drastically increase the demand for buildings and increased infrastructure which would lead to larger emissions during their construction and subsequent operation. Environmentally sustainable buildings and infrastructure will be the key to urban resiliency. Building is a key sector in China's economy and continues to provide spectacular economic income. The large property market and the vibrant construction activity provide the opportunity to delivery green construction in China.
