I’ve occasionally observed confusion and resistance surrounding conversations about green construction and lifestyles. I wonder why some people stumble while others are jumping on the green bandwagon, so I’ve decided to remove “green” from the discussion. Here’s a list that I compiled of potential benefits related to the design, product selection and construction techniques that might be considered when planning a new home or renovation project:
- Community Impact
- Durable Construction
- Energy Efficiency
- Environmental Awareness
- Health and Comfort
- Operations and Maintenance
- Property Characteristics
- Resource Utilization
- Site Development
- Waste Management
- Water Conservation
What factors do you use in the decision-making process?
