Welcome to my blog for EDDT 231. This blog will outline the process of creating an applied research process about renovating historical homes to incorporate green, sustainable living techniques.
Morgan, Found a book that you might be interested in. It has nothing to do with historic homes, but it does talk about "green" remodeling, and its cheap. Good luck, Travis

Hey Morgan,
I found a magazine that talks about using Green in your home.
New Home Magazine spring/summer 2008 - Build Green at Shoppers Drugmart.
Here is a website for you to check out as well.
