From solar farms to worm farms, we provide the content platforms for all initiatives. We blend the latest sector news with information, analysis and opinion. We also feature new technology, videos and products. The news featured and journalist content is handpicked but not interfered with. We encourage you to make up your own mind and comment. We are independent and not affiliated to anybody or organisation. At this point in time our company survives on providing reliable, targeted traffic to our advertisers. GREEN BUILDING AFRICA - NET CARBON ZERO BUILDINGS AND CITIES Green Building Africa promotes the need for net carbon zero buildings and cities in Africa. We are fiercely independent and encourage outlying thinkers to contribute to the #netcarbonzero movement. Climate change is upon us and now is the time to react in a more diverse and broader approach to sustainability in the built environment.
