What do fused glass, shredded jeans, paint, and plants have in common? They’re all featured here at GreenBuild as innovative solutions for greener buildings. Fused glass countertops made from recycled bottles (in your favorite cola color). Home insulation made from old denim jeans. Safe paint formulations with no toxic off gassing. And living roofs made from plants – a roof that filters rainwater, creates oxygen, sequesters carbon and provides habitat! In a way this is “back to the future” as our houses of old were made from all natural materials derived form nature. We are learning to remember what we always knew- only more high tech.
