C.A.R. launches “At home with green™” Web site

Have you checked out the new green Web site by the CALIFORNIA ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS®?

The association launched the site, “At home with green™, as a way to focus on C.A.R.’s Green Initiative and to provide homeowners, REALTORS®, and the general public with information about how they can make their homes, offices and lives more environmentally friendly.

The Web site features an index of green resources, green terminology and key green principals.

For REALTORS®, the site includes tips about how to sell a green home to consumers, as well as information about making your office more environmentally friendly.

The site also includes information for homeowners and home buyers about:

  • Buying green homes.
  • Incentives for making homes more environmentally friendly.
  • Finding REALTORS® with green credentials, such as EcoBrokers.

The Web site also has a “Green Blog,” which can be accessed only by members of the California Association of REALTORS®.

“Housing is often one of the leading contributors of greenhouse emissions,” former C.A.R. President William E. Brown said. “It’s important to raise awareness and educate members and consumers about environmentally sound practices.”
