Green ?

At first look this dish rack i made last week is green and organic, right?

Better than plastic or metal?

What about:
-the chainsaw and fuel used to cut down the Cassia Senna Spectibilis tree.
-Electricity to plane the boards after 1 1/2 years
-Electricity to cut into shape
-glue?
- nails?

Okay so my point is you cant say this is a green product, only that it is greener than something else.

It turned out okay.

Green building?


I am not a green builder , but I can try to be a greener builder but no one will ever be a green builder.


This article from a rammed earth builder says it better:
