Description
Are you building, remodeling, or considering retrofitting your home for energy and resource-efficient living? In this course, we'll explore various aspects of green (environmentally sound) building, including heating and cooling, materials from sustainable sources, water use (interior and landscaping), and methods to evaluate green marketing claims from manufacturers. We'll also analyze several projects to help you better understand green building as it applies to your own home, and discuss initial costs versus energy savings and payback schedules.
