HGTV Green Home Giveaway 2009
HGTV is hosting it’s Green Home Giveaway for the second year in a row . They are giving away a home located in Port St. Lucie, Florida and features a wide variety of eco-friendly options described in the following video:
The home features a variety of environmentally and sustainable features including:
- Platinum LEED Certification
- All Energy Efficient Appliances
- Water Efficient faucets, toilets and showerheads
- Solar Water Heating and Panels
- Environmentally Friendly Paints
- Self Sustained Garden
- Composting bin and rail barrels
- Recycled carpets
Also included is a 2009 GMC Sierra Hybrid that has a V8 engine and gets 21 city/22 hwy. This is probably the part of the contest that I am not really thrilled about. Just to bring this massive vehicle up to par with the already inefficient cars we have on the road, they had to make it a hybrid. Regardless, you still would win this car if you were to win the contest.
In total, the prize package totals about $750,000. This home is really a great example of how homes should be built in America. Make sure to enter the contest by going to HGTV Green Home Giveaway page so you don’t miss you chance to win this beautiful and environmentally friendly home. The contest ends on June 5th, 2009 at 5:00 p.m. eastern time.
