"Greenwashing" is when manufacturers exaggerate the "green-ness" of a service or product. And so-called green products are exploding onto the consumer scene.
Unfortunately, there is no centralized regulating authority of what is "green."
So we all need to use our brains and think about our purchases.
Don't be fooled by greenwashing. Read the fine print.

Kermit the Frog knows it isn't easy being green. Nothing worthwhile is ever easy.
You can check out Kermit's performance here.
There is a new designation out there for REALTORS®, the Green Designation recognized by the National Association of REALTORS®. Offered by REBAC (Real Estate Buyer's Agent Council of the National Association of REALTORS®), a 2-day core course was created so REALTORS® can "adopt and implement green practices in their day-to-day businesses."
The core course covers the definition of "green," green communities, green homes and buildings, green buyers and sellers, and how to green your real estate practice
The very first course is being offered at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando on November 5th and 6th, coinciding with the NAR Conference & Expo 2008. And the really great news is that the introductory price is only $150.00 for the 2-day core course, discounted from $295.00.
As time goes on, we're going to see more people interested in purchasing homes and making upgrades to their homes that incorporate green appliances and reduce the harm to our environment. Why not get educated on the greening of America and see how we can further benefit our clients?
For more information, go to http://rebac.net. Hope to see you in Orlando!

"I worked with Peggy Edwards recently on the sale of my home. She was prompt, dependable, professional, and friendly. She has great knowledge of my neighborhood and could speak to all its strengths to potential buyers. She kept me informed throughout the process and helped my know how to best show my home and set an asking price that was in my best interest in terms of potential profit as well as to encourage buyers to view the home. In a sluggish market, my home sold in three months even though I had projects I was still completing during that time. I closed without a hitch, getting more than comparable houses on my street. I could not be happier with her work." Susan Martinieri, Tampa, FL
"Peggy is a bright, hard-working REALTOR. I would recommend Peggy to friends, family and colleagues. She is conscientious and extremely thorough and most importantly creative and knowledgeable." Joe Faw, General Partner, Bay to Bay Properties, Safety Harbor, FL
