It includes sections like: 

- Which renovations to an older home offer the best sustainable return.

- The important (and cool) role of "castoffs" in any green home. 
- 10 ways to squeeze every kilowatt out of your kitchen's efficiency.

- Which home energy hacks actually work. 

In one easy to understand ebook, you get a complete overview of what to consider when buying a green home or renovating one to become your new eco home. [Download for free and enjoy!](https://www.greenbuildermedia.com/download-the-2023-homeowners-handbook-of-green-building-remodeling)
