Build It Back Green (BIBG) is a free service offered to help you rebuild your home in a more energy efficient and healthy way, as well as reduce your monthly utility costs. Global Green, a non-profit group working for the sustainable rebuilding of New Orleans, has received funding to assist New Orleans homeowners receiving Road Home grants. BIBG's goal is to make you aware of the lowest cost green rebuilding techniques, focusing on energy efficiency, water savings and indoor air quality.
