Eko Dubai for Eco Dubai?

We're not talking about Dubai taking a wholescale approach to going green. We are talking about a new building in Dubai that is being called the Green Eiffel Tower



It is planned for Zaabeel Park, City Center Dubai. And why is it green? It generates solar energy and purifies air.




Not crazy, but sustainable



Another day, another building
