Book excerpt: Energy efficiency is the goal of many homeowners and businesses. Energy savings can be achieved through a variety of measures, from simple changes in lifestyle to larger investments in energy-efficient products. One of the easiest and most cost-effective ways to reduce energy costs is to reduce the amount of energy used. Homeowners can do this by taking simple steps such as turning off lights and appliances when not in use, using natural light whenever possible, and using energy-efficient light bulbs. Businesses can also reduce energy use by installing energy-efficient lighting, heating and cooling systems, and water-saving devices. Installing energy-efficient products can also help reduce energy costs. Many appliances, such as refrigerators, dishwashers, and clothes washers, now come with energy-efficient models that use less energy than older models. Installing energy-efficient windows and doors can also help improve a home’s energy efficiency. Finally, investing in renewable energy sources such as solar panels or wind turbines can also help reduce energy costs. Renewable energy sources can provide clean, renewable power to homes and businesses, reducing the need to rely on traditional energy sources. By taking simple steps to reduce energy use and investing in energy-efficient products, homeowners and businesses can make significant energy savings. Over time, these energy savings can add up to significant long-term savings and help protect the environment.

This book was released on 2019-03-06 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Making your home more energy efficient will help you to reduce high energy bills, improve comfort and help to protect the environment. Saving energy at home is easy. This book contains time-tested tips and energy-saving choices for reducing your home energy consumption: The book covers the following areas: * Cutting Heating and Cooling Costs * Energy Efficient Use of Appliances. * Saving Energy in the Kitchen * Energy Efficient Home Lighting * Energy Efficient Water Use Here's just a small sample of the tips included: Turn the thermostat to its lowest setting if you won't be at home for a few days. You can turn off the heating system completely if there's no danger of pipes freezing while you're away. Walk around the house with a candle on a cold windy day to see where cold may be entering around doors and windows. Save on heating costs and stay comfortable in cold weather by dressing to retain body heat. Layer your clothing: wear lightweight basic garments, such as a shirt or blouse or short-sleeved sweater, covered by heavier garments, such as a Saving Energy sweater vest, and topped with a warm jacket or sweater jacket. If you become too warm you can adjust your own body thermostat by taking off a layer. To speed the installation of weatherstripping, try stapling instead of nailing it. Keeping your home well caulked is one of the best ways to save energy. When you caulk, make sure joints are thoroughly dry-you can dry deep crevices with a cloth stretched over the blade of a putty knife, or with a blast of hot air from a hair dryer. When caulking several joints, start with the smallest joint and recut the tube's nozzle as necessary for successively larger joints. A room will stay warmer in cold weather if curtains fit tightly against the window's frame so that warm room air doesn't move across the cold. window surface. A fixed valance at the top and sides of the curtains will help, and so will weighting or fastening the curtains at the bottom. Installing a window greenhouse in one or more of your house's south-facing windows is an unusual (and effective) way to gain extra heat for your home in winter, to reduce the loss of heat to the outdoors in the evening, and, of course, to provide an encouraging environment for plants.

Book excerpt: We don’t have an energy crisis. We have a consumption crisis. And this book, which takes aim at cherished assumptions regarding energy, offers refreshingly straight talk about what’s wrong with the way we think and talk about the problem. Though we generally believe we can solve environmental problems with more energy—more solar cells, wind turbines, and biofuels—alternative technologies come with their own side effects and limitations. How, for instance, do solar cells cause harm? Why can’t engineers solve wind power’s biggest obstacle? Why won’t contraception solve the problem of overpopulation lying at the heart of our concerns about energy, and what will? This practical, environmentally informed, and lucid book persuasively argues for a change of perspective. If consumption is the problem, as Ozzie Zehner suggests, then we need to shift our focus from suspect alternative energies to improving social and political fundamentals: walkable communities, improved consumption, enlightened governance, and, most notably, women’s rights. The dozens of first steps he offers are surprisingly straightforward. For instance, he introduces a simple sticker that promises a greater impact than all of the nation’s solar cells. He uncovers why carbon taxes won’t solve our energy challenges (and presents two taxes that could). Finally, he explores how future environmentalists will focus on similarly fresh alternatives that are affordable, clean, and can actually improve our well-being. Watch a book trailer.

Book excerpt: Discover the simple but effective ways for owners and renters to maximize a home's energy efficiency and begin slashing their households energy bills starting immediately.After reading this book, you will be numbered amongst the very few people in the world who clearly understand the advantages of building and living in a home where nature passively keeps the internal ambient temperatures stable and comfortable throughout the seasons. You will also begin to know how to put this knowledge to good use. When applied in conjunction with meeting your home's energy demands with the most efficient sources and practising energy-efficient habits, a family's home becomes more comfortable to live in and requires less energy. You can have the best of both worlds.The end result is a win-win outcome every time. Even simple changes made to a home or to a family's habits can result in a significant reduction in the consumption of electricity without a compromise in living standards. Who doesn't want to live in a home that is warm in the winter and cool in the summer? For many reasons, it is advantageous to have nature do the heavy lifting for you. Keeping the temperature in your home as close as possible to the "sweet spot" all year can simply be taken for granted with a home that has been correctly designed and built. Saving on electricity expenses is merely par for the course. Well-designed, thermally efficient homes are worth increasingly more in the marketplace. They attract higher rent, they are more comfortable to live in, and they use significantly less energy to operate. A solid understanding of the fundamentals will open up a whole new world to you, providing access to opportunities that very few people even know exist.

Book excerpt: The story of a young man that would help change the world in which he lived. He stood on the ledge of the great Cauldarian range looking down at his hand in which he held a rock. The beauty of it was overpowering, its green opaque luminescence made him feel falsely at ease. But he knew this was an object of beauty that no Cauldarian should posses. The stone represented the dark side of their history. The ideological faith and power that emanated from it could also be used for good. But its efficacy was wielded as if it were a sword striking at every aspect of the populaces' freedom. So far, its thrusts proved deadly in every instance. It had to be thrown over the ledge and into the night if his people were to survive. Michael awoke from this same dream that he had many times before. It was as if it were only yesterday that his world had changed; it was so different, but in many ways, it was still the same...
