 New Book Shows How to Save Money Building Green Homes
Build Green and Save: Protecting the Earth and Your Bottom Line,” by builder Matt Belcher, is a comprehensive, easy-to-read reference that provides builders with the information they need to build green — and save money at the same time.

Available at BuilderBooks.com, “Build Green and Save” gives builders an overview of the business of green building and a breakdown of the different green guidelines and standards available, including NAHB’s National Green Building Standard.

In the publication, Belcher shows builders how to:

-- Identify and select green building materials
-- Implement green construction techniques
-- Explain the benefits of green housing to consumers
-- Offer affordable green building solutions to consumers
-- Use resources wisely and reduce water and energy consumption
-- Market environmentally sound practices

In addition, Belcher makes a case for affordable green building based on personal experiences and details.
