Sustainable Development and Its Impact on Reducing Carbon Footprint by Using Computer Simulation in Cairo
Keywords:
Sustainable Development - computer simulation - Environmental Assessment - Environmental Footprint - Carbon Footprint - CO2.Abstract
More recently, with the understanding of the climate change crisis and the energy problem resulting from the lack of renewable resources, many problems related to climate and greenhouse gas emissions have emerged The interior architecture sector of the buildings is the most energy consuming in the world, hence the need for a highly efficient interior design approach and the production of an indoor environment suited to the comfort and well-being of the individual and to the requirements of thermal adaptation and environmental requirements. In the context of Egypt's interest in and hosting of the World Climate Summit COP27 November 2022,and the modern growth trend aimed at stabilizing energy consumption, especially in urban areas, to achieve a low-carbon society, This research discusses solutions from different design strategies to reach zero energy interior space The basic objective is to promote society and its ability to improve internally, which is a fundamental Artacase tool for reducing emissions, thereby reducing its impact on the environment and providing rationalization solutions for energy and resource consumption. By selecting design materials from natural sources to improve internal climate quality as well as achieve energy efficiency and productivity s environmental and carbon footprint by reviewing how carbon footprint can be reduced to support sustainable development.
The research dealt with two parts to reach the research objective through a descriptive approach that addresses the identification and description of characteristics and variables specific to the study problem, as well as the relationships and differences between these variables: Autonomous variable - intermediary: environmental footprint and intermediate variable: carbon footprint reduction and dependent variable: Sustainable development objectives and the analytical and extractive approach to determine the impact of the environmental footprint on the achievement of sustainable development goals and its impact on the reduction of carbon footprint, which is the research mechanism's objective. And Through an applied study using simulation in Design Builder v 7.0 using green roofs in buildings in 10th of Ramadan City.
