I can say that "building green" definitely costs more, but you're also getting a far superior structure, regardless of the eco benefits. You can call it "green construction"... but you might as well just call it "smarter construction". I've also got the budget from our initial drawings, which will at least give you a decent idea of the cost differences, although it's not exactly an apples to apples comparison.
