The builder of all new residential dwelling types in NSW needs to submit the Basix Report before the final assessment. A scheme called BASIX, i.e. Building Sustainability Index is a requirement for the homeowners, and home builders have to fulfil before starting the constructions. The report gives a green signal that your planned structure is energy efficient. As per a report of Sydney Water, the people and government of NSW were able to save 37.6% in 2009 and 40.6% in 2008 actual water. It aims to save between $294 million and $1.1 billion by 2050.

Thus, these small steps can make a huge difference in emitting global warming problem.
