Green is good

Please don't misunderstand; green is good. It's good because it's the right thing to do and makes good sense. But in today's climate green has become "all about the money". (Those might say that greed is good. One letter makes a big difference.) Companies are even altering what they do and how they do it and are moving toward green practices because "there's money in it". Come on, as I've said, we have been doing this for years. We stay up on what's new in building science and in products. We lead the way in education and installation practices. And it's not because it's "all about the money". It's because it's what professionals do.
If you sense a little ranting in these blogs then that's okay. We're tired of people making this whole thing such a big deal. This stuff should be standard and not something special. It certainly isn't new. There is a natural progression and some get it sooner than others. Then there are those who have to be force-fed.
In short, we are a green company applying green practices and employing green products. Everything in life is a balance though, and different people will see the trade offs differently. We are here to help educate, inform, and get the job done in a way that works for each client individually.
