NAHB says residential market is going green

We've been seeing references to green building practices in newspapers, popular magazines, and in the trade press for the past year or so. This year, the National Association of Homebuilders' green building conference in St. Louis attracted a good-sized crowd.

Here's a link: http://www.nbnnews.com/NBN/issues/2007-04-02/Front+Page/index.html

Note that builders and home buyers are beginning to see beyond the usual high-efficiency appliances and insulation to the green residence as a complete system. This is an important mind shift: from "bolting on" green features to designing and building a green home through an integrated process.
