This podcast is for people who want to understand options for custom homes and renovating that will reduce their carbon footprint. Some call it green building, some high performance and others, sustainable building. If you want to understand building science concepts and lingo in a conversational way, then join us as I interview everyday builders, architects, materials suppliers and people who enjoy living in high performance homes. This will be a great start on your journey to sustainable choices in home building and renovation.
