“Sixty percent of our individual environmental footprint is related to our houses and the way we live in and operate them. This is a huge statistic – bigger even than our transportation footprint.” States Christine Rae, President Canadian Staging Professionals™, Certified Staging Professionals™, premier staging training programs, author of Home Staging for Dummies and recipient of Real Estate Staging Association “Innovator of the Year Award 2007” for her work in EcoStaging™ “As the movement for greening the planet expands to almost every service and product imaginable, the population of North America will seek out information to reduce energy costs and help sustain the earth.”

Real Estate Agents, brokers and homeowners are eligible to earn a Green Build Science certification, while an alternative certificate version is appropriate for contactors, designers, remodelers, home inspectors, project managers, corporations, and cities; even the general public will be interested as an “opt in” green alternative.

“Rae’s company will provide the main training arm for Live Green”, says Peter Lytle, Executive Director and Founder of Live Green, Live Smart, LLC. “Christine has prepared a cadre of twelve instructors to kick start the release of this initiative and we foresee those numbers multiplying rapidly. Christine is insightful and a visionary, to lead a fledgling industry (staging) into a place where others have not even thought of. We are also excited to be part of the development of CSP™ Continuing education program EcoStaging™. Together we make a dynamic duo!”

Rae trademarked and developed a marketable energy audit in 2007 for CSP™ consultants to use with their clients, raising awareness of energy consumption and how to improve them. “Energy efficiencies are the most important feature homebuyers look for after price and location” says Rae. Peter’s 50,000 homes initiative goes hand in hand with CSP™ belief that sustainability begins at home – whether you are a seller, investor, buyer, or living in your home.

Live Green, Live Smart’s team of researchers, designers, builders and architects provide tours of The Sustainable House, (The World’s First Platinum LEED approved house) and consulting on individual projects. Homeowners already involved in greening their shelters are invited to join the 50,000 Green Homes Initiative, an online community at www.livegreenlivesmart.org sharing information, photos, and encouragement for building and remodeling sustainable homes.

Certified Canadian Staging Professionals™ organization is a division of Decorating Solutions (Niagara) Inc. Headquartered in St. Catharines Ontario, the CSP organization is a leading authority on home staging training with the largest network of certified staging consultants coast to coast. www.ecostaging.com CSP is the first home staging organization in the world to initiate green training within the staging industry.
