Environmental Impact Assessment
The construction of a new building affects the natural environment in a number of ways. In order to minimize effects that could be negative, the consequences of any construction project must be considered before construction of a new building begins. Using a process called environmental impact assessment, the planners of a construction project assess or evaluate the effects that it would have on the environment.
