Where does electricity come from?
It is important to remember where the electricity comes from. If the builders of the house produce all their own electricity (net electricity, they may produce more in the summer and power the grid, and take out more in the winter) using the sun then does it really matter how efficient the house is if no carbon is put into the atmosphere? It's possible that they could leave the lights on 24 hours a day with no production of greenhouse gases, which doesn't hurt the environment. Building a new house in that location is another matter though.On A Colorado home-builder reflects on his attempt to go green posted 3 years, 1 month ago 7 Responses
