Nature is a valuable asset belonging to the public and our future generations. New developments may destroy the natural environment of the habitats. To recreate a habitat or natural environment is a complex issue that needed time and effort to resolve many uncertainties and problems. Therefore, we shall minimize our ecological impact when designing a sustainable building. The following are activities that we may consider to minimize the ecological impact:

1. Preserve existing key topography, key features, cultural heritage, local wildlife, ecologically valuable trees and landscape
2. Minimize dewatering and settlement
3. Restore degraded habitat areas and create habitat areas within the site and adopt native species in landscape design
4. Preserve and enhance existing slopes and provide erosion control measures.
