If someone said, "Do you want a green home?" the answer may be, "No I prefer blue". Now it seems going green is everywhere. Even HGTV has a 'Green Home Giveaway'. Real estate agents can earn a 'green' designation. I'm someone who loves old homes so buying 'green' may not be high on my list if I'm looking for a historic home. I'm all for conserving energy and like 'natural' materials but I feel homes with too much stone, concrete and glass have a 'cold' feel to them. I suppose the younger generation may love this look and feel. The Chicago Museum of Science and Industry has a 'smart home exhibit'. I found a video of this exhibit on Realtor.org, check it out and see what you think. green home video
