Resource summary
Are you concerned that your household is adding to environmental problems and contributing to climate change? Are you looking for a way to reduce your spending on electricity and water? Or maybe you want to be less dependent on the electricity grid?
Whatever your reasons, this guide and the lessons of the ‘My Green Home’ family are for you. The Green Building Council South Africa, with co-funding from the German government and a set of sponsors and partners, spent six months working with one suburban family to green their home and show what is possible.
