Our homes are one of the best places that we can choose to become more environmentally conscious. Small choices every day, from choosing a reusable cup to composting food leftovers, can make a difference for the environment. The choices you make when designing your home can also have a beneficial impact on the environment.

An environmentally friendly home starts with building plans but continues with your everyday decisions. Your home is only as environmentally friendly as you’re willing to make it. But studies show that environmentally-friendly decisions have both short and long term benefits for your wallet and for the world. From water conservation to energy efficiency, your home can be comfortable and eco-friendly too.
