Building Green is pioneering and entertaining lifestyle television with an environmentally-conscious twist. Its mission is to inspire homeowners to discover just how easy, cost-effective and healthy it can be to go green, while dispelling the myth that an environmentally-conscious lifestyle means doing without. Each week, host and show creator Kevin Contreras invites viewers to explore a range of green building techniques and alternatives, from the eye-popping green extreme to the green mainstream, while demonstrating that healthy choices don't mean sacrificing beauty and comfort. It is at once timely, relevant and responsive to the growing demand for greener living sparked by such dramatic and impactful documentaries as An Inconvenient Truth and The 11th Hour.
