| Abstract: |
| The buildings industry represents about 34% of the total greenhouse gas emission percentage of the whole planet. Therefore, global warming is the main problem that countries are looking forward to finding a solution for by using a sustainable strategy to create new communities with zero carbon effects through decreased energy consumption and sustainable materials and design. One of the main reasons for the climate problem is increasing in un-clear energy consumption. The building material industry has a role in climate differences. Although increasing energy consumption depends on many reasons, one of the characteristics of building material used in the construction phase as fired clay brick is one of the significant construction industries. It produces a massive amount of greenhouse gases. On the other side, it will make these materials expensive and scarce in the long run, leading to substantial uncontrolled degradation of the natural environment. So, some different materials and forms of construction have developed in different parts of the world due to climatic differences to be commensurate with the surrounding climate environment. |
