Green Building 101 Series by Inhabitat
Inhabitat is a leading online magazine covering the future of sustainable design.

This week, Inhabitat launches a weekly how-to series called Green Building 101.

The summer series will introduce readers to the fundamentals of environmentally sustainable building through tutorials structured around the LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certification system - the U.S. Green Building Council's benchmark certification program for green building.

Over the course of the 10-week series, Green Building 101 will present a comprehensive overview of how to make your living space environmentally friendly, equipping readers with a better understanding of what "green building" really entails, along with basic tools, tips and DIY suggestions for applying sustainable design to homes both old and new.

Green Building 101 will be written and edited by Inhabitat's team of LEED-accredited designers, and published every Wednesday morning at Inhabitat website.
