Home Energy Ratings

摘要

Even if you've lived on a deserted island or in a cave for the past few years, just about all of us have come to realize that one of the greatest challenges facing the world today is climate change. This awareness, combined with rising energy costs, has vastly affected the way people live today. People are driving less, buying more fuel efficient vehicles, and replacing incandescent with compact florescent bulbs. We all want to use less energy, reducing our carbon footprint while also keeping energy costs in line. As we become more intent on reducing our energy usage and our impact on the environment, it is crucial to understand that the homes in which we live are buildings that contribute up to 40 percent of all green house gases.
