Hillary for President!!!










no, i was jk. don't worry. lol anways....

as it stands right now, it's not cost effective for the average joe to have his house built "environmently friendly". heck, just the cost of solar panels on your roof so you didn't use any of the power companies power would damn near bankrupt ya. and eve that is almost impossible, idk bout any of ya'll but in FL we will get some weeks where it seems to do nothing but rain. you can run off of batteries just sooo long. moving to what was stated the the article about the ...pipes going down 300 ft below ground... i'm sure just that was a pretty penny, much less any of the other "enviro. friendly" stuff he's got done. i forgot who said it, but the thing about the fluorescent bulbs...yeaa those are great. they do use a lot less power, and if most ppl that could afford a $7 light bulb in every light in their house would do it, and everyone would turn the damn light, fan, or tv off when they left the room it would be a huge savings overall. might even see a LITTLE off ur electric bill, that and not running your a/c or clothes dryer as much and putting your hot water heater on a switch or time clock. u'll def. see a lil sumthin' off the bill.



just a few ways we all can pitch in.
