In pursuit of bright spots in a foggy environment this morning, I picked up my copy of  REALTOR, The a bloom in the fogBusiness Tool for Real Estate Professionals.

Often, like many of you I suppose, I simply peruse the trade rag. But today's thumb-through "bloomed" into energy and cost-saving suggestions, when, in the "Real Life" Department,  I found the Eco Hatchery Kit.

 

Partly because REALTOR, The Business Tool for Real Estate Professionals was recommending the Eco Hatchery Kit,

but mostly just because of my eternal curiosity,  I hopped on over to http://www.ecohatchery.com/  and the following good news. (most appreciated.) 

" We can avoid the most catastrophic scenarios by making simple lifestyle changes and improving how we produce, consume and discard. . . .A step-by-step "cookbook" explains the environmental and economic benefits of all the products and [a way to ] generate your own Eco Roadmap online."  The Eco Roadmap  survey covers four areas  underscoring the idea of actually finding a starting point and the savings that can be had as a result. Right now, I am into savings. How about you?

eco hatchery kitPossibly eco-friendly real estate professionals will find the "green your home" kit of value.The Eco Starter Kit that includes useful tools to "start saving $260 in utility bills, shrink ...carbon footprint by 2.5 tons, ... conserve hundreds of gallons of water year after year..."  and produce environmental benefits "equivalent to replacing a mid-size car with a Prius hybrid or eliminating 5,500 pounds of garbage from landfills!"...

I noticed this also. I always go the the Real Life section first. Much more positive and upbeat than the rest of the publication lately. Did anyone read "Facing Down an IRS Audit" in last month's Realtor? I vowed to never read it again!

That would be a pretty cool closing present for a green oriented client.

I have a hard time getting my brokers to read it...and it may be for the reason you noted.  But, like you, I check out that RealLife section ...seems to have good ideas to jump-start my day...

I was thinking the same thing. I have created gift baskets with "greenie-stuff" in them...but this might be easier, eh?

That is a pretty neat kit and a very interesting site!  Should I write to tell them the phrase on the Kit page should be "Put the BRAKES on global warming?"  Can't help my proofreading habit...

Its great to see more and more areas going green.  Minnesota recently adopted a green building and remodeling certification program.

Beginning with the design process, this system of project verification and certification assures the key components of green techniques and materials through to the final construction.  The emphasis on five key components of "green" building systems assures a whole-systems approach:

  • Water Conservation
  • Indoor Environmental Quality
  • Energy Efficiency
  • Resource Efficiency (including Durability)
  • Site and Community

Thanks for the great "green" blogs!

Hi JaneAnne,

I read about this, but was a bit skeptical. With the bombardment of green products, it's becoming difficult to sift through to the best of them. After checking out the website, AND hearing the offer of an additional $10 off when contacting ActiveRain :-), I can say that the company should get in touch with www.rateitgreen.com to add this product category to its database, so that people have a place to comment on it.
