Green homes Entry Today

When many people think of green home design, they think about the cost of such construction. I would actually agree with that statement. I think that many times, people get so wrapped up in going green that they ignore fine structures in order to build "better" structures. Their heart is in the right place, but it doesn't make much sense to me.



In my mind, green home design shouldn't be limited to new construction. Greenness should be promoted in your current home. For example, insulate your home in a better manner to reduce your fuel consumption in the winter and thus reduce your heating costs. I agree with the idea of being green, but not with the idea of being wasteful in the name of greenness. I just think that it is so horrible when stores move into malls or plazas, which are "greener", and the old buildings that they used to be in just sit empty for years and years until they tear them down. Lots of money and land could have been saved had someone modernized the existing building rather than wasting it. Bookmark.



My point here is that it is usually more efficient to improve existing structures than to waste them and build new ones. Green home design doesn't mean building a new home. Green home design means building greenness in your current one. Another site you will like.
