Renters Guide to Sustainability

Wednesday, March 04, 2009
Even renters can make changes to their home to make it more comfortable, save money and reduce their environmental impact. The Renters Guide to Sustainable Living, published by the Alternative Technology Association, shows how it’s done. The 16 page booklet is a free resource for anyone looking to lighten their carbon footprint as a tenant.

The booklet also has handy information about how to negotiate changes with a landlord, rebates available as well as eligible tax deductions. There are tips for the whole house, showing room-by-room how to cut greenhouse gas emissions.
