Use Windows to block climate change

In recent years, against the backdrop of global warming, the world is faced with an increasingly serious energy crisis, record greenhouse gas concentrations and increasingly frequent extreme weather events, which has attracted special attention from all walks of life in the field of energy conservation.

Since China proposed in September 2020 that "China will strive to reach the peak before 2030 and achieve carbon neutrality before 2060", how to better practice the road of energy conservation and carbon reduction has become the focus of attention.

On the morning of November 12, Egypt time, the 27th United Nations Climate Conference (COP27) was held in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt. The topics of how countries can reduce carbon emissions more effectively, how countries can adapt and help other countries adapt, what is "loss and damage" were deeply discussed.

The agreement, called the Sharm el-Sheikh Implementation Plan, was finally released after days of intense discussions. The key provisions of the agreement include a loss and damage fund to help vulnerable countries cope with climate disasters; Reaffirming the goal of limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels and the global need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions within 20 years and halve emissions by 2030; Launching a five-year work plan to promote climate technology solutions in developing countries, among others.

Among them, the biggest highlight is undoubtedly the "loss and damage" issue. The United Nations defines "loss and damage" as the irreversible economic and non-economic costs of extreme weather events such as hurricanes, heat waves, droughts and wildfires, as well as long-term climate disasters such as rising sea levels and melting glaciers.

Extreme heat waves, droughts and destructive floods this year have affected millions of people and caused billions in damage, according to the World Meteorological Organization's interim "State of the Global Climate 2022" report.

According to the World Health Organization, human health depends on the health of the surrounding ecosystems, and rising global temperatures are leading to extreme weather events that continue to have an increased impact on human health.

This is already intuitively related to us personally. From another point of view, to save ourselves from the disaster caused by global warming, we need to make contributions to improving human health from our own perspective.

Statistics show that cities, as the driving force of a country or region's economic development, account for about 3 percent of the earth's land area, but produce 72 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions. Thus, the key to fulfilling the promise of "carbon neutrality" lies in cities. "The strategy to peak carbon neutrality is urban, and the construction industry is the most important key factor in determining whether a city is carbon neutral or not."

To establish and improve the energy saving and green building system is undoubtedly the fundamental measure to solve the serious energy consumption of buildings at present. Energy consumption can be greatly reduced by optimizing building design, which helps to realize zero-carbon buildings. However, it is very complicated to achieve the coordination between design and performance. For example, the structural design of Windows and exterior walls in the building envelope.

As a part of the building envelope, Windows play a very important role in the energy saving of the building. It is reported that the annual loss of energy through doors and Windows, can account for 45% to 50% of the building energy consumption, the overall effect of building energy conservation has a great impact.

Therefore, it is not difficult to infer the relationship between energy-saving Windows and green buildings, as well as the importance of both to reduce global warming, reduce the total energy consumption of the whole society, and reduce the incidence of extreme disasters.

Sayyas Window Industry, as the first enterprise in China to recognize the importance of energy saving and green building, began to research and develop energy-saving external Windows for green buildings as early as 2010. In 2012, Sayyas Window Industry successfully developed and produced the aluminum clad wood window product -P120, which was certified by PHI (Passive Room Research Institute) in Germany and is suitable for green and energy saving buildings. In addition, nearly 20 products have obtained PHI certification and have been applied in more than 120 large-scale energy-saving building projects in China, covering all building climate zones in China, contributing to the development of green buildings in China.

As one of the leaders of energy-saving window category, Sayyas will "limit consumption reduction, extremely beautiful life" as the enterprise has always implemented the mission. Committed to provide low energy consumption, high comfort energy-saving window for home life.

Under this important premise, demanding the combination of energy-saving Windows and modern architectural aesthetics, the pursuit of ecological beauty of healthy home, is also the direction of Sayyas forward.

Carbon neutrality must be the main theme of current social development, because it is not only related to the transformation of the world economic pattern, but also related to whether the deterioration of the overall human living environment can be contained and improved. As a "large household" of carbon emission, buildings are bound to play a decisive role in the process of achieving it. Architecture makes people get rid of the living environment of the sky, but it must also shoulder part of the mission to prevent the deterioration of the environment.
