The stuff our homes are made of has changed as the world has become a smaller place.While houses used to be built from whatever was available, usually locally, materials now may come from anywhere and everywhere.
Using resources – materials and products – wisely is a key practice of green building and includes practices ranging from optimizing use of resources (such as wood for framing) to choosing durable materials that will stand the test of time and offer lower maintenance.

Election Season 2016 – It has been a raucous time for the American Voting Public.

Habitat for Humanity helps many people have a home of their own. Gabbing with Michelle Woods with Habitat for Humanity- St. Charles. To date, Habitat for Humanity – St Charles has built 75 homes, all to green building principles.
Michelle says “Green Building is common sense building.” The vision of Habitat for Humanity- International is “a world where everyone has a decent place to live.”
Using green building techniques allows Habitat to build affordable homes yet affordable does not necessarily mean cheap. It means smart and sustainable, and less expensive to operate and maintain.
