I thought I would provide a list of all the areas we will be covering as we work on greening our homes together. This way, you’ll have an idea of what to expect and you will also have a chance to give your input on any areas you don’t see listed that you would like to cover. [Just leave a comment or send me an email with your idea] I’ll post the Master List on the Green Our Homes Page (soon) so you can refer to it anytime you like. As we cover each entry, I’ll update the Master List to point to the specific post.
Here’s the topics we’ll be addressing

btw, how did you add this comment box to your website? I hate that you can not comment on my blog unless you have a google account. I am a newbie to this blogging stuff! thanks! Love your site
What a great list. thanks for sharing!!
I’m hoping to learn more about rainwater collection in order to supplement for gardening, flowers, etc.
Tankless water heaters, lawnmowers (there are some new one’s that don’t run on hydro or gas), green building materials/decor (if you are making changes), toilet paper
These are great suggestions, Jen. Just the kind of feedback I was looking for, I’ll add them to the Master list right now!
