You donât have to purchase new âgreenâ construction to take advantage of green home features. You can retrofit your home so that your property is more energy efficient, has better indoor air quality, conserves natural resources (such as fuel), and uses less water. Currently, 40% of the worldâs resources go into buildings, and 66% of electricity generated is used for heating, cooling, and lighting buildings.
