Today's Green Headlines
"Water is the next Carbon" is a statement we are beginning to hear more frequently these days. Access to clean drinkable (potable) water in sufficient quantity is a major limiting factor for many of the world's poor and undeveloped populations. The more developed world has been more successful at getting access, but with population growth, the quantity of water available is reaching its limits. The EPA WaterSense program is helping us realize the many ways in which we can conserve water and use it more effectively. This is definitely a great "green" program with great value for homeowners. Check out the Fall 2009 WaterSense newsletter at: http://www.epa.gov/watersense/news/current/fall2009.htm#2
The second article listed in the newsletter, What Is Your Water Worth?, is especially interesting.

Water is so important. I think it's definitely something people take for granted. I just took the first part of the GREEN designation course for Realtors and it was a real eye opener.
