Abstract: Global warming, a significant challenge that humanity faces in the 21st century, is like an arrow on a taut string, ready to be released. According to relevant data, the average temperature of the Earth has been rising at a visible rate in the past few decades. This change has already had a tremendous impact on human life, the ecological environment, and economic development. Behind this, the excessive emission of carbon dioxide is undoubtedly the culprit. How to reduce carbon emissions to alleviate global warming has become an issue that humanity must face. However, the development of green building is not something that can be achieved overnight; it requires the joint efforts of all of us. In China, significant progress has been made in the development of green buildings, but it also faces certain challenges. We have reason to believe that as long as we adhere to our beliefs and continue to explore, green buildings can certainly play a greater role in reducing carbon emissions and mitigating global warming.
