Accelerating Green Procurement for Construction Project Adoption Through The Enhancement of People Capabilities
Unpredictable weather, global warming, and even air pollution result from human activities that harm the ecosystem, whether we like it or not. Since the publication of the Brundtland Report, the adverse effects on the environment have been the focus of discussion by many parties. The Brundtland repo...
