- Abstract
Introduction: A green home is a house which is equipped with energy saving and emission reducing utilities, thereby making it environment friendly. It focuses on the use of water and energy in an efficient way. Global warming is a result of aggressive industrialization of the world and causes many environmental problems. Global warming has created such a negative impact on the ecosystem in some regions that it has sparked a huge interest in developing methods and equipment which minimize the deteriorating effects it can have on the local ecosystem. Aim: The study is to evaluate the awareness of green home habits among the urban population of Coimbatore. Materials and Methods: A questionnaire was prepared regarding green home habits. People among Coimbatore were asked to fill the survey. This survey was taken up by 100 people, aged between 18 and 50, of which 36 are male and 64 are female. The questionnaire was prepared using Google forms and the survey was dispensed through a digital base. The survey was sent to people in Coimbatore. Once the required responses were received, the survey was closed, and the data were taken in form of pie chart with help of Microsoft excel. Results: A total of 100 people was questioned, of which 36 (36%) were males and 64 (64%) are females. The age range is from <18 to 50 years. Thus, we come to know the different percentile of the questions asked, from which a complete stand can be taken regarding people’s views on green home management. Conclusion: From the above results, we can conclude that most of the people are aware of greenhouse habits and their importance.
