India aims to become a developed nation by 2047, and growth will be faster, so there is a need to bring balance, and we can achieve it by increasing green cover. Reforestation will be key to achieving carbon neutrality, and at CREDAI, we have launched a mission to reforest 1 lakh acres in five years. We are going to nurture five crore trees." IGBC Ahmedabad's co-chairman, Taral Shah, highlighted the business advantages of green buildings, noting their popularity among multinational companies.
