Using 75% Less Natural Resources in the Home

Morning Sun Builders' current project is the renovation of a multi-unit dwelling in the city of Pittsburgh. We will be discussing the goals for the project which are:

1. highly efficient space and water heating.
2. highly efficient use of electricity.

Super-insulation and water conservation will also be discussed. A brief introduction will be included on environmental eschatology.
