Buildings produce roughly a third of carbon dioxide emissions and other emissions that harm air quality. Everyone involved in the process of new construction and rennovation, from owners, to architects, to contractors, can make significant contributions to the process of reducing these impacts.
A new study confirms what I have believed for some time, we need to use the free, onsite energy sources available to us, solar, wind, and water, to generate our OWN power to charge our own ELECTRIC vehicles for the bulk of our every day driving. Invest in your future, the future of your children, and of our planet, by investing in your own power generation and electric rechargeable vehicles. The best part is, NO ONE will ever be able to charge you for using the sun, wind, and water on your own property!
