It used to be that being environmentally friendly and making money were mutually exclusive. No more! In this week's WealthTrack we explore how you can help the earth and your finances, at the same time, in your home, your investments and your business. Energy and environmental journalist, Bill Paul has a number of steps you can take to cut your home's energy use and enhance its value.
