Renovation Nation

Himself

'Renovation Nation' was a green home building show starring Steve Thomas, formerly airing on the now-defunct Planet Green channel in the US. Episodes began airing 4 June 2008, and the show produced two seasons, totaling 66 episodes, before cancellation. Typically, an episode consisted of Thomas visiting homes that featured various types of green building projects, be they in new construction projects or in, as the title suggests, green renovations of older living spaces. Frequently homeowners and residences would be featured across multiple episodes, as each homeowner might have been involved in multiple projects such as alternative energy generation, energy conservation and eco-friendly construction techniques and materials.
