Energy Efficient Upgrades 

 Individual homeowners directly benefit from green building practices: lower energy bills, lower water bills, and healthier longer-lasting homes. But the cumulative effect of large-scale green building can have enormous benefits for the community, the nation and the planet.

  Remodeling a home green is easier than you think. It’s easier on the earth, it lowers costs, and it provides a healthier home in which to live. According to the Sustainable Building Industry Council (SBIC), housing alone consumes 20% of America’s energy. Homeowners who choose to remodel green can lower their energy consumption by 30-50%.
