Many buzzwords are tossed around today like: sustainability, green living, no impact, carbon footprint, energy conservation, Energy Star, LEED, reduce, reuse, recycle, and upcycle.
They may mean different things to different people in terms of priority and commitment.
We are into stewardship. In our humble opinion, energy conservation is at the very foundation of sustainable and frugal living.
Energy that does not have to be generated has no emissions, no pollutants, no transportation costs, and no foreign oil dependency.
Some of the techniques we employ can be accomplished with little or no monetary investment. Other methods we will chronicle will require some substantial investment of time and or money; and professional services may need to be employed.
Everything has a payback, be it short or long term, but when you consider it AN INVESTMENT it will help justify the cost.
Also some helpful links to keep up with the ever changing face of Home Energy Conservation.
