Global goes very local here in Oakland—on this non-profit website—where homeowners can link to get the information and resources to help you start greening your home now. Learn practical approaches to small and large greening projects-and find local, state and federal programs that help pay for them!

Local green certified contractors from sustainable floorers to landscapers can be found in these pages. You’d be surprised to learn that greening can be as easy as choosing the right window treatments. And that energy efficiency goes far beyond solar.
Sometimes it just takes a little know how.

From Home Energy Audit info (did you know there’s currently a program giving $200 rebates for these high-tech individualized building performance tests?) to cost saving solutions you might not have heard of, we continue to add practical information to this site. And update it as our wealth of knowledge grows.

In fact, before you even start, you can find out what works and what doesn’t work from others who’ve successfully completed greening projects from start to finish. Check out our blog.

Let’s get going.
