There are many reasons why people feel the desire or need to "go green", but two big reasons why this is a quickly growing trend are:
1) We have limited resources available and we would like to have these resources still available for future generations to enjoy, so we are searching for ways to be less wasteful.
2) Cutting energy expenses in this economy is quickly becoming a priority.
How much do you know about Going Green, about Green Building, Your Carbon Footprint, The savings involved in green systems and materials, etc?
NAR now has a Green Designation that will teach you about the Green Movement.
The following information I pulled directly from the NAR Green Website
NAR’s Green Designation is the only environmental real estate designation addressing multiple specialties. It is also the only green designation for agents AND property managers recognized by the National Association of REALTORS®.
Close to one-half of all greenhouse gas emissions are produced from buildings. Green building isn’t just responsible; it’s necessary. Both consumer demand and government policy are making this happen and shaping the future of our industry. Join them in the green movement and lead your community to a more sustainable future with NAR’s Green Designation.
Don't let people in your industry get ahead of you. It's important that you at least go on to the NAR green website and see what others in your industry are quickly learning!
