World's Greenest Homes travels to Hamburg, Germany to find a 1,400 square foot, box-like home with a geothermal heating system, ecologically harvested wood panels, and a tiny carbon footprint.

Next, in Auckland, New Zealand a 1,500-square-foot boasts a slick exterior made from ninety percent recycled steel and sheep's wool insulation.

Finally, on the doorstep of the Swiss Alps is a 3,000 square-foot home with a translucent glass façade and four bedrooms—and is one of the first zero-emission homes in Europe.
