Building Green
Sustainable design or building "green" is a choice to make a personal difference in your community and the environment. Using recycled, reused, renewable materials, renewable energy, water efficient products, and efficient building practices will provide you with a “green” home that will save you money and lessen your carbon footprint at the same time. It’s a win-win situation!
There are 4 things to keep in mind when building green: the environment, your health, the economics, and your community. |
