At the most basic level, being “green” means not only considering the possible impact of our actions on the planet, but choosing to act in a way that leaves the smallest footprint. The green movement is not new. However, global consciousness about green issues has risen to new heights.
Among builders and remodelers in the United States*, energy efficiency ranks first in definitions of green. Building and construction professionals are also concerned about:
- Renewable resources
- Recycled content
- Reduced indoor off-gassing
- Durability
- Manufacturer environmental policies
- Locally produced products
- LEED credits
