Green building improvements today can be as simple as installing occupancy sensors for lights, adding insulation to your attic, upgrading plumbing fixtures, and sealing doors and windows.  There are also more complex options like installing tankless water heaters, using recycled building materials, and recycling your construction and demolition waste.
