Who We Are

We are Green Home Tools ...   
... a website offering a cornucopia of new, used, recycled, and repurposed "green" products, services, and information. We want the ecologically and environmentally aware, well-informed consumer to reduce the  use of resources and  the generation of wastes with the smallest possible environmental footprint. This leads to an ecologically friendly lifestyle for the individual and a sustainable world for all.  This is the purpose and essence of living green.


We live by the values embodied in: 
-- waste not, want not
-- what goes around, comes around
-- with great power comes great responsibility, and 
-- we do not inherit the world from our grandparents but only borrow it from our grandchildren. 
 

That means we have an obligation to leave the world a better place than when we found it by taking stewardship responsibility for our resource consumption and waste management decisions, so that there is a future worth living for us and our posterity.  Nature abhors an ingrate more than a vacuum.


            What We Do

We are a clearinghouse to bring you one-stop-shopping access to green tools, equipment, supplies, services, and catalogs, information, and forums that is organized and formatted to optimize it's usefulness based on user feedback.   We also include access to books, magazines, articles, and blogs on everything from practical tips for green living at one end of the spectrum to exposure to the theory and application of life cycle analysis of goods and services at the other end of the spectrum.  This is intended to make it possible for you to optimize your purchasing strategies backed by the state-of-the-art of sound social, economic, and physical science. 


            Why We Do It

We want to green the world one individual, family, apartment complex, school and community at a time.  We profit indirectly if you use our website as a guide to live more and better lightly and rightly and directly when you purchase a product or service after clicking on one of our vendor links.

DISCLAIMER: Green Home Tools is a catalog of useful links to all things green that is intended to provide a unique, one-stop shopping experience for the customer that cannot be duplicated anywhere else. However, the inclusion of a link to a particular source of information, educational institution, product vendor, or service provider does not constitute an endorsement. The customer is encouraged to independently verify any claim made by a vendor of a product or the provider of a service using a general worldwide web search of the name of the vendor and the word "complaints", a search of complaints registered with the state or county in which it is licensed to do business, and/or the Better Business Bureau, all of which allow a search of their databases free of charge, and/or a respected, independent evaluation service provider such as Underwriter Laboratories http://www.ul.com/, Consumer Laboratories http://www.consumerlab.com/ or Angie's List http://www.angieslist.com/, all of which, unfortunately, charge a monthly or annual membership fee for their evaluation services. Despite customer due diligence and good faith effort, sometimes things do not always go as planned, and a reputable product vendor or service provider will always correct any problems brought to their attention in a timely fashion, including the failure of a product or service within a specified warranty period. Any problem encountered by the customer should be brought to the attention of the source or vendor, preferably in writing, so that the customer has a written record of what was communicated to whom and when. This is also useful in documenting disputes for resolution by your credit card service provider. While Green Home Tools assumes no responsibility for a problem encountered or its consequences from following one of our links, nevertheless, we do not want to do business with an affiliate who is unresponsive or uncooperative in solving a problem brought to its attention in writing in a clear, timely, and respectful fashion. Please report to us any problem encountered with any information source, educational institution, product vendor, or contracted service accessed via a Green Home Tools link that has not been corrected to the customer's satisfaction, and, after verifying the customer's claim, we will stop doing business with that affiliate. Thank you for your understanding in this regard. THE MANAGEMENT
