Green Building Costs: "What do I have to pay to get a green home?"
One way to answer this is with a personal anecdote. Here's what I paid in the
first three (3) years of Kyle's (my son) hospital visits and for Casha (our
pet). The costs below do not include what my husband, my other son
and I spent with doctor visits and medications.

Healthier materials were about $1500 more.
I would have paid it if
I had known.
