Sustainable living: it's simple!
Sustainable living and making apartment complexes environmentally friendly - these were the themes of a recent workshop organized by Apartment Adda and The Alternative in Bangalore. Posted on 26 Jun, 2013 04:00 PM

Oasis Breeze and Mana Sarovar Apartments are two apartment complexes like any other in Bangalore. They have a huge water problem. Residents use water without realising how much they are wasting and depend on water tankers without realising how much they are using. To monitor better usage, individual water meters were set up in each household of the apartments.
