Where Can You Find Green Building Materials?

May 15, 2008 by admin · Leave a Comment

The green building industry is still fairly new. It can be difficult, especially for homeowners, to find green and sustainable building materials for our projects. It is also a challenge, to make sense of some of the labeling, which at times is up to interpretation or downright misleading. And without green building materials, we can’t build a green home.

Many hardware stores, including the large chains like Lowe’s or Home Depot, feature green building materials. Carefully check what they label as green. Be aware that products shipped half-way around the world, or from the other side of the continent, are not sustainable.
