With Earth Day here now we all hear a blurb about it in the local newspaper or on TV etc but what do most people do the other 364 days out of the year? It's what you do when no one is looking that counts they say.
Green building is projected to become HUGE into the future.McGraw-Hill Construction Analytics, the value of green building construction starts will grow from $12 billion in 2008 to $60 billion in 2010.Wow that's quite an increase.
Green will be mainstream someday. It is heading the right way that is for sure but we still have a way to go to educate the normal consumer on the street.
The days of being green meaning living in a Dome home are over...now it's NO or low VOC paints with bamboo counters and floors,recycled denim in the walls for insulation,new lighting,solar and a whole lot more!
In celebration of earth day here are some links for you if you are going to be repainting your home soon or in the new future.
