Welcome to Live Green Now www.livegreennow.ca

This site is currently under development and we gladly welcome input from the public! Email us today if you have suggestions for this site. It is not really meant to be a green real estate site, nor a site that focuses on real estate at all.  If you would like to find out more about Vancouver real estate, please visit our other websites listed below.

As you may have suspected from the name, the goal of this website is to provide information aimed at assisting people in "living green". As a realtor and an environmental lawyer, I am often asked about or myself looking for, products or services that are "green" or that will help me live greener. In 2007, I became the first certified green realtor in BC through the Ecobroker program-I am now formally an Ecobroker!   This site was underway much before that time and it started because I have often been frustrated trying to find such things or find information on various green living issues.  I think a lot of people would live greener if it were easier to figure out how to do so. Of course there is a plethora of such information out there-but I have not found a "one stop shopping" location for such information. The idea of this site is to gradually compile information, mostly in the form of links to other web sites, so that people can find what they are looking for more quickly. 

This web site does not in any way endorse or guarantee the products or services linked; we are just trying to make it easier for people to choose to green various aspects of their lives. While we cannot guarantee that we will post all links submitted, we encourage people to send in links to websites that might assist in providing this type of information. Examples of what we are looking for are: building supplies, cleaning products, cleaning services, new technologies (green roof, etc) that are green.   The theme is home/living/real estate (for obvious reasons!).  If you have an idea that you think people would be interested in, please send it in-we would prefer a short paragraph on what it is, along with the web link.  As the site is meant to be local, suppliers in the lower mainland or easily accessible (ie. through internet sales) will be preferred.

We hope this helps you live green more easily!
