Tips for greening your home
Do It Yourself Green Home Improvements
Submitted by DIYhomepro on Mon, 12/01/2008 - 10:35.Being that the economy is in the dumps and home values are plummeting, we are on the verge of a HUGE green wave in the coming years.
What are most people doing to their homes to prepare for this 'green' invasion? What is the biggest concern people have about their homes and what do they want to learn more about to make their homes more green?
I know that air sealing the home is VERY important for better home energy efficiency.
Does anyone else have any suggestions?

Energy Star Appliances - save $80 per year in energy cost
Submitted by Raw Vegan Mama on Mon, 08/27/2007 - 10:46.The next time you purchase new appliance, please get an energy star rated one! Most dishwashers are energy star rated. Mid level and up refrigeraters, high end topload washers, all frontload washers, many frostfree freezers are energy star. It is so simple to do!
Quote from energystart website:
Did you know that the average home spends about $1,900 on energy costs every year? Change to appliances that have earned the ENERGY STAR, and you can save $80 a year in energy costs, while saving the environment.
