The Home Depot's New Green Product Database

As of last month, The Home Depot in conjunction with the U. S. Green Building Council has rolled out a new online database of The Home Depot's over 2,500 products and materials that can be used towards points or prerequisites on LEED for Homes projects.

Be sure to check out the site here: LEED Home Depot

Even if you're not involved with LEED or green building in general, the benefit of this database is truly great for folks looking to use green or Eco-friendly products and materials and aren't looking to spend all day at their local Home Depot searching labels.
