It’s in the news… it’s trending on social media sites… it’s talked about by politicians….

I’m convinced that you’re also interested to learn more about this subject…
How do you know exactly what needs to be added (or removed) to bring a house into acceptable standards as an eco-friendly house?
Jim’s been in this field for a number of years now and has completed eco-friendly properties in different areas across the country. He knows his stuff. And in this episode, he openly shares it all with you.
