Applying low carbon landscapes at the Premier Polytechnic of Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah, Shah Alam, Malaysia

Campus physical development plan is an efficient tool in shaping campus life to promote a sustainable living community, especially for students. The purpose of this study is to enhance the quality of campus outdoor environment by applying low carbon to green landscapes and sustainable development. Premier Polytechnic of Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah (PSA) was selected as a proposed model for the government's planning to turn the polytechnic into a green campus. Applying and practising green and low carbon development in the PSA campus areas has reached a total reduction of 12.51% carbon sequestration via tree planting. This finding will help to produce a physical model of outdoor planning and design in generating low carbon campuses in Malaysian polytechnics.
