Poinciana Realtor Turns Green

As of yesterday, Darhlene Zeanwick became one of the only-3,100 realtors in the entire U.S. with Green Leadership certification from the National Association of Realtors (NAR) and Poinciana's first "Green Realtor." The research is voluminous. Green really affects every aspect of life and lifestyle. For example, do you have any idea how much carbon dioxide your home puts out into the air each year?

Try about 13,500 pounds for a 3,000-square-foot home. Most of Poinciana's homes are not quite that large but still: If you have a 1,000-square-foot home, that property is putting out more or less 4,500 pounds of carbon dioxide every year and, let's see, each person lives how many years?

With the mug-me levels of heat in Florida, especially in August, it's not that unusual to hear of cooling bills as high as $400 in one month! And we're not talking in-door marijuana grow houses either. These are real people with who like it cold. Frosty!
