Government: The Ministry of Environment and Climate Change is responsible for sustainable use of resources and the environment. Within the Ministry of Environment and Climate Change, the Environmental Affairs Division Conduct Construction Risk Screening. Follow good practice and design standards for water and sanitation, consider future climate impacts, such as increased temperatures and increases intensity of Construction siting. Provide adequate ventilation in facilities. Insulation should take into consideration variations in temperature. Use of material resistant to the flooding. Investigate if buildings are in floodplain.
