What makes your home a Green or Healthy Home?

The house has no carpeting. The air we breath is clean and free of pollutants. The food we grow in our garden is chemical free. The pasture would be a great place for free range chickens and grass fed beef. The quality of life is less stressful due to the slower pace in this quiet and serene country atmosphere.
