Abstract: To achieve the dual carbon goals, effective approaches to building sustainability are proposed from four perspectives: low-carbon building design, low-carbon building energy use, low-carbon building materials, and low-carbon construction methods. How to achieve low-carbon building design is discussed through five aspects: the building itself, lighting, windows, landscape gardening, and rainwater recycling. Moreover, how to achieve low-carbon building energy use is explored through four aspects: solar energy, bioenergy, wind energy, and heating and cooling. Finally, the contributions of green transformation to sustainable development are summarized and concluded.
Keywords: Low-Carbon, Building, Sustainable Development
