Steve Thomas, former host of "This Old House", travels the country searching for landmarks in green building and design.

Today, Georgia Tech University unveils their prototype for the House of Tomorrow. This eco-haven is 100% solar powered, has exterior shading devices and an interior lighting system that glows.

Steve also checks out a pre-fab, modular house packed with cutting-edge ecoinnovation and gets down and dirty installing a doggie compost heap.
