Evaluation of carbon reduction through integration of vertical and horizontal landscape design for hotel premises

Hotel premises is a fundamental component of the tourism and hospitality. The design, construction, operation and end-of-life-cycle processes of hotel premises built the environment by which it exerts both positive and negative impacts on the guest and surrounding environment. Carbon emission from h...
