Green Building continues to gain momentum every
year as demand grows and builders begin to focus
on filling that demand. Going green no longer
means geodesic domes or strange-looking houses,
owned by staunch environmentalists. Green has
become more and more mainstream over the past
several decades, until a sizable number of new
homes contain at least some green features.

Green Building for Energy
If you're old enough, you can remember when the
concept of green building was considered to be
just a strange notion held only by tree huggers
and other members of the environmental lunatics.
However, that's no longer the case, and green
building is one of the hottest trends in America
today, so much so that it's considered unusual
NOT to have at least some environmentally
friendly and energy efficient components in new
construction.
