BENEFITS OF
GREEN
BUILDING
|
FOR
RESIDENTS
|
Healthier and more comfortable indoor
environment, reduction in utility costs, better home resale marketing
potential, more productive living/working environment, and increased
home value. By making buildings more energy and water efficient, you
will save money on monthly utility bills and ease demands on our
already overburdened utility systems. More money in the hands of
citizens means a healthier local economy. |
