World's Greenest Homes travels to Nottingham, England, where an abandoned former warehouse was transformed into an imaginative, 2,000 square-foot eco-home that features 18th century brickwork, a large skylight and glass walkway plus a system that reuses and recycles the entire home's grey and brown water.

Then, ancient Japanese customs and Western eco-architecture blend seamlessly in this unique 1,000 square-foot home in Nagoya, Japan. Perched over a shallow reflecting pool and built over a steep 30-foot drop, the home features moving walls and windows, and a wide-open living area.

Finally, contemporary loft living meets the great outdoors in this 3,000 square-foot Dutch eco-home. With passive solar heating, an insulated green roof, and three walls of double-paned glass, the home is naturally cooled by two ponds and a waterfall.
