Sustainability is …
According to the Sustainable House Foundation, when we use the word “sustainable” we mean homes that are designed to reduce the overall environmental impact during and after construction in such a way that we can meet the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. We accomplish this by:
- Efficiently using energy, water, land and other resources
- Protecting occupant health
- Reducing greenhouse gases, pollution, waste and environmental degradation
