Our Earth Day

Our Earth Day

“The environment is where we all meet, where we all have a mutual interest; it is the one thing all of us share.” – Lady Bird Johnson

 

Earth Day is an annual event created to celebrate the planet’s environment and help raise awareness of our climate. Here at Bella Homes, every day to us is Earth Day.

 

Green Homes Fight Climate Change

According to the Center for Climate and Energy Solutions, U.S. residential and commercial buildings account for nearly 29% of all U.S. greenhouse gas emissions. This means that buildings play a large role in climate change, from their initial construction to their day-to-day operations.

As home builders, it is our responsibility to reduce our impact on the environment. That’s why every Bella Home is certified green by the Florida Green Building Coalition. We utilize green building practices that reduce our effect on the environment and greatly minimize our homeowners’ carbon footprints. With the use of natural materials, effective insulation and Low-E windows, energy-efficient appliances, and technology, our homes help lower the carbon footprint and are beneficial for the planet.

 

Stay on Mother Nature’s Side

Ensure your home is on Mother Nature’s side by choosing Bella Homes. All of our properties are built with high-quality materials, are fully LED, and include spray foam insulation. We aim to create homes that are energy efficient and have minimal impact on the environment – that’s why we are a proud member of the Florida Green Building Coalition.

 

A home that is built to last is better for the environment in the long run. If your home is constructed with unsustainable materials, you are more likely to need repairs or replacements over time. If your home needs new roofing, insulation, or paneling every decade, all those replacements will contribute to your home’s overall carbon footprint. Your home should be constructed with high-quality materials that are made to last, reducing the need for repairs and more materials needed later on.

 

 

This #EarthDay, consider how your daily habits contribute to your energy consumption and carbon footprint, which have an effect on the environment we all share. An eco-friendly, energy-efficient home can help change that. Contact us today to learn more!
