WALK-INS ARE WELCOME!

We ofter hear news stories about greening our homes. Most reports focus on changing our light bulbs, using low-voc paint, or purchasing energy efficient appliances. Having a green home is so much more than just those things.

A green home incorporates smart design, technology, construction, and maintenance elements that significantly lessen the negative impact of the home on the environment and the health of the people who live inside it. This event will help you understand why moving beyond bamboo floors and compact fluorescent lighting can help reduce health risks and increase market differentiation.

Speakers:
Laureen Blissard, Residential Green Building Advocate of the U.S. Green Building Council - Chicago Chapter
