At Rise, we want to demystify the theory that to be green or sustainable, that you have to pay more. You don't know what you don't know. That's a lot of the reason why we exist.
They discuss the value of looking at the total cost of ownership of a house or a given product, rather than the upfront price. And, they talk about the environmental benefits of repurposing building materials, rather than always buying new.
