Home Eco-nomics

Green Consultant Liza Dunn

You ask your sibs about gifts for the parents. (DVD player, wine fridge — is there a gadget left to give these people?) And you defer to your friends when updating your wardrobe.

So who else can you rope into making decisions for you? Green consultant Liza Dunn, with her customized eco action plan.

She’ll guide you through home renovations that incorporate energy-saving appliances and locally sourced or recycled materials. She’ll demystify the world of carbon offsets and help you save water, reduce waste, and choose nontoxic products for under your sink. She can even green your office space, wedding reception, or upcoming vacation.

And she’s realistic. Dunn is all about finding a balance and taking the steps that give the biggest bang for the buck. She’ll show you the options, and you can choose which changes to make.

An area where you may be a little, uh, green.
