Beautiful and Green Home

Today, I am going to talk about "What makes a beautiful and green home".

Green has many meanings to many people. Some say, its a color and some say "it's about our planet Earth". And they all are right in their respective terminology. But with the current initiatives taken at various levels... for me Green is now increasingly about our environment. Yes, all those keywords like "Global warming", "Solar", "Wind power", Hydro electric" etc it "ALL" boils down to environment friendly energy and more about "Environment Friendly Home". Your Home. YES, now is a greater chance for all of us to participate and contribute in creating a Green, Environment Friendly Home. Did you notice, just few years back, you imagined that you had nothing to do with environment. And now, with new global initiatives you can be part of it, starting to contribute your few cents towards it.

So with that said, now a days, it all starts with your own home. We talk about installing a SOLAR panel. Agreed, its good. But before we do that, let us answer this question HONESTLY. As a home owner, how responsible we are to create a energy efficient home? What responsibility you have taken in your own home, in order to say proudly "YES, I am contributing in creating a energy efficient home". If the answer to this question is YES, then probably your answer to following questions is YES as well. Please check out...

1>Do you switch OFF the lights in your rooms, when rooms are NOT occupied?
2>Do you switch OFF your air circulating systems (including FAN, AC, Heaters), when rooms are NOT occupied?
3>Do you turn OFF your TV, DVD, Video player, Audio system, when you are not watching/listening the program?
4>Do you turn OFF the sprinklers, when they are NOT in use?
5>Do your appliances go "Auto Off" mode, when NOT in use?
6>Do you have energy efficient dimmers, to control the energy consumption?
7>Does the HOT water keep running, when you really can suffice with cold water?
8>Does your water faucet keep dripping for NO reason?
9>Does the shower keep dripping for NO reason?
10>How about the laundry loads? Do we manage loads efficiently, so we dont have to RUN a second load?
11>How about the Vacuum cleaner? Is it being used efficiently?
12>Hope, Grills are running efficiently too.

So the point is, to contribute to our planet EARTH and environment, DOES NOT necessarily mean, shelling OUT few bucks and start installing panels. But, it can start with few baby steps.

Above precaution and measures could be your baby step towards a energy efficient home of your...
