Why We Should Reduce Our Non Renewable Fuel Source Useage CASAMENTO FELIZ EXISTE? Environmentally friendly green energy is good for the world, and it saves you on energy costs as well. Here are few of the many tips on how to incorporate green energy in your home. Using less electricity saves a lot of money and energy. Unplug appliances when you're not using them. Turn off the lights and TV when not in the room. This is a simple tip that can help you save money, too. Wear natural fabrics in the summertime instead of cranking up the air conditioner. Cotton and similar fabrics will draw moisture from your skin, so you will stay cool. You can also try wearing lighter colors, they help you feel cooler, lessening your need for artificial cold air. You can get a grant from the government to help you invest into some renewable energy. Get in touch with your local government to find out what kind of programs exist in your area. You could possibly qualify for wind or solar installation at little or no cost, or you can deduct these kind of expenses from taxes. If you would like to reduce the cost of your hot water, use solar energy. Solar hot-water systems can reduce your energy bills significantly. There are direct circulation systems and indirect ones. The indirect system is best if you don't want to worry about your pipes freezing in the winter. Replace a water heater that is tank-style, with a model that is green and has no tank. These heaters only heat water when you need it rather than heating the tank constantly. This saves you on your gas or electricity costs. Tankless heaters can supply the entire home or certain faucets. Air flow is controlled best in homes with storm windows and doors. Storm windows and storm doors reduce the amount of cold air entering the home in the form of drafts. When homes have windows and doors that are stormed, 45 percent less energy is used, which can decrease electric bills. Solar hot water heaters are an excellent way to have lower costs on your hot water energy use. Build a hot-water system based on solar energy. You may pick between a direct or indirect circulation system. For colder regions,indirect is a better option. When you are preparing to install a solar energy system, ensure that the power storing batteries are located nearby to the cells. No power will be lost during the transfer from the cells to the batteries by doing this. It also reduces shading of the solar shells. Shading reduces solar panel energy generation. Try not to set the heat very high in your home unless it's an absolute must. If you find the air a little chilly, put on a sweater or an extra pair of socks. High levels of heat use too much energy. Try using a solar oven for your baking needs. You can make these with boxes, old windows or old pieces of foil that can be used for reflection. These ovens can be quickly assembled, and reach 300 degrees in temperature simply using the sun.


Think about baking with a solar oven. These can be made with readily available items like an old window, box, and piece of foil for reflection. These types of oven can become very hot with adequate sunlight, and cook some foods without any additional energy source. It is becoming abundantly clear that now is the time to transform our energy sources from old, wasteful and pollutant to greener and more economical ways. It's true that no source of energy is 100% "clean," but alternative energy sources are far more clean that what we are using now. Now that you have learned a few tips from this article, you will be better able to save money and make the planet friendly for future generations. PPRA 2017
