When Green Builder launches in January at the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) trade show, it will be the third largest magazine in the homebuilding sector, the Rutland Herald reports. The magazine hopes to target contractors building between 5 and 400 units annually.

The new magazine focuses on news about green building, responsible growth, and sustainability and is designed to provide contractors with practical, how-to, design, product, and business information about building green. also has plans to develop a rating system or seal of approval for products.

Green Builder negotiated with NAHB for their mailing list by offering them advertising and the magazine has been approached by two other groups - an international urban development organization and an association of home remodelers - which want similar ad-for-mailing-list arrangements.
