He wāhi motuhake te rūma ma e whakahaerehia ana e te taiao, kua hangaia hei whakarato i tētahi taiao mahi tino ma, kia tika ai te whakahaere me te tiaki i te tukanga hanga o tētahi hua, tukanga rānei. I roto i tēnei tuhinga, ka matapakihia e mātou te whakamāramatanga, ngā āhuatanga hoahoa, ngā wāhi tono, me te hiranga o ngā rūma ma.

Tuatahi, ko te rūma ma he rūma e pupuri ana i te kukū o ngā matūriki, ngā huakita, ngā moroiti me ētahi atu poke i te hau i roto i tētahi whānuitanga i raro i ngā āhuatanga taiao motuhake, ā, ka tutukihia ngā whakaritenga horoi motuhake mā roto i ngā pūnaha horoi hau me te whakahaere tukanga tino pakari. Ko te hoahoa o te rūma ma he tikanga kei roto ko te pūnaha tātari hau, te pūnaha whakahaere pāmahana me te haumākū, te pūnaha pēhanga pai, kino rānei, te pūnaha whakahaere hikohiko, me ētahi atu hei whakarite i te pumau me te ma o te taiao o roto o te rūma.

Tuarua, ko ngā āhuatanga hoahoa o te rūma ma ko te rere o te hau, te pūnaha tātari, te hiri, te whiriwhiri rauemi, me ētahi atu. Ko ngā whakaritenga rere hau e ai ki ngā whakaritenga tukanga me ngā āhuatanga taiao hei whakatau, mā te whakamahi i te rere kotahi-ara, te rere laminar, te rere whakauru rānei me ētahi atu momo hei whakarite i te ōritetanga me te pumau o te rere o te hau. Ko te pūnaha tātari te mea nui hei whakarite i te tuku hau ma, mā te whakamahi i ngā tātari tino whai hua, ngā tātari hepa, ngā tātari ulpa rānei, me ētahi atu, hei tango i ngā matūriki me ngā matū kino i te hau. Hei tāpiri, he mea tino nui hoki te hiri me te whiriwhiri rauemi hei ārai i te urunga mai o ngā poke o waho, hei whakarite hoki i te pumau o te hanganga o te rūma.

He whānuitia te whakamahinga o ngā rūma ma i roto i ngā mara maha, inā koa i roto i ngā ahumahi haurua-ira, rongoā, hangarau koiora, rererangi me ētahi atu ahumahi he nui ngā whakaritenga taiao. I roto i te umanga haurua-ira, ka whakamahia ngā rūma ma mō te horoi i ngā papa, te whakairo, te whakaahua-ipurangi me ētahi atu tukanga i roto i te tukanga hanga maramara hei whakarite i te kounga me te pumau o ngā maramara. I roto i te umanga rongoā, ka whakamahia ngā rūma ma mō te tukatuka rauemi mata, te hanga whakarite, te takai me ētahi atu āhuatanga o te hanga rongoā hei whakarite i te parakore me te haumaru o ngā rongoā. I roto i te mara o te hangarau koiora, ka whakamahia ngā rūma ma mō te whakatipu pūtau, te whakahaere i te bioreactor, me ētahi atu hei whakarite i te kounga me te parakore o ngā hua koiora. I roto i te mara o te rererangi, ka whakamahia ngā rūma ma mō te huihuinga me te whakamātautau o ngā waka mokowhiti hei whakarite i te mahi me te pono o ngā waka mokowhiti i roto i te taiao.

Kāore e taea te whakanui rawa i te hiranga o tētahi rūma ma. Ehara i te mea ka whakarite noa i te kounga me te pono o ngā hua, ka whakaiti hoki i te tere o te poke me ngā hapa i roto i te tukanga whakaputa, engari ka whakapai ake hoki i te hua me te whakaiti i te whakapaunga pūngao me ngā utu whakaputa. Hei tāpiri, he mea nui anō hoki te rūma ma ki te hauora me te haumaru o ngā kaimahi, ka whakaiti i te maha o ngā mate mahi me ngā aituā i puta mai i te poke o te taiao mahi.

Hei whakarāpopototanga, hei huarahi nui mō te whakahaere taiao, he mea nui te mahi a te rūma ma i roto i te whakaputanga ahumahi hou me te rangahau pūtaiao. Mā te hoahoa me te whakahaere tino pakari, ka taea e te rūma ma te whakarato i tētahi taiao mahi ma, pumau hoki mō ngā momo ahumahi, te whakarite i te kounga o te hua me te haumaru o te whakaputanga, me te whakatairanga i te whanaketanga me te ahunga whakamua o te ahumahi.
