Green home blues
The Prince of Wales plans to build a low carbon house out of natural materials, even if that means it won't attain the highest possible green building rating.
Some people are becoming convinced that the Government's stamp duty rebate for zero carbon homes is actually a con. It's possible the scheme will take off slowly, but I would be unsurprised, though a little disappointed, if the requirements for eligibility have been set too narrow deliberately.
