Green Building 101: The Conclusion

It was like, um, summer school? And we skipped a few classes? And we do feel bad about it, but now as the Green Building 101 at Inhabitat series wraps up, they put all of the chapters together in one post. If it were a book it would be recommended reading for everyone designing or looking for a home; Instead it is immediate, accessible, and free. They conclude that "what you do at home does matter, and there are numerous accessible, affordable ways to make some changes that improve your own life, as well as benefiting your community and the environment" and showed us how in tasty bite-sized bits. They have created something that will last in a medium usually considered ephemeral. Congratulations to Inhabitat for ::Green Building 101
