Do you think this picture is better?
John Christopherson
Its fine. Why is it included? To show a neighborhood?"Can you spot the passive home. . .?neither can we." Then it would fit after slide 9.
John Christopherson
Is that a joke?
Ian R Auger
No
Ian R Auger
do you want to see?
John Christopherson
Maybe crop the photo instead.
Ian R Auger
That is a great idea!
Ian R Auger
Do you like it?
Ian R Auger
NOOOOOOO!
Douglas A Vigil
what did you do
Ian R Auger
yah there is a redo button!!!
Ian R Auger
DUDE I FOUND A REALLY COOL CHANEL ON YOU TUBE FOR GREEN ENERGY!!!!!
Dervon Parchment
YAYYYYYYYYYY
Dervon Parchment
What did you find
Ian R Auger
and it has NET-ZERO!!!
Dervon Parchment
YAYYYYy
Ian R Auger
the channel is called GreenovationTV
Dervon Parchment
OK should I go and watch it
Ian R Auger
go to WXYZ.com

ok
Douglas A Vigil
i,m on
Dervon Parchment
me to I just finished the video and finished reading the artical
Ian R Auger
is the video cooll!?!?!
Dervon Parchment
yeah!

What is net zero energy?Well, Net Zero Energy means that the building or house using net zero will produce more energy than it will use. Even if your understanding of physics makes you go WHUUUUUUUUUUU?!?!?!

This is all possible.

How is this all possible?Well how is this all possible?Basically, it makes more energy than it needs to run. Like if you have a separate building on your property, you can cover it with solar panels to make energy while having more that it needs to run, and that is how Net-Zero is possible. Now where does all this energy go? Well, it goes into the grid.

The effect on the carbon footprint

Fox news video

Slate window sills and tri-pane

windows.Slate window sills can get heated up by the suns’ rays to naturally heat the house up.

Tri-pane windows are windows that have two layers of low emitting glass made of extremely fine glass fibers (E-Glass)and 1 layer of regular glass so it will lose less heat.

This butterfly is pretty scary! Imagine if you had that thing flying around your house! Hide your jam!

I like jam!

Fact Flash!

Did you know that your windows and doors are the most energy losing place in your house? It’s a good idea to get Tri-pane windows to prevent energy loss (and to keep out giant butterflies!).

The U-Factor is...The U-Factor tells the difference between the outside temperature and the inside temperature. The lower the difference, the higher the U-factor that home has. It also measures the rate of heat loss, so the less U-factor your house has the better. One house has a U-factor of only 0.25!

Passive buildings

The term Passive building refers to a rigorous, voluntary, standard for energy efficiency in a building reducing its ecological footprint. The result, energy efficiency.

Can you spot the passive buildings on this street?

We can't either. See how well they blend in!

Net-Zero neighborhood debate

PROSThe Net-Zero houses are low energy so then the citizens will be able to save more money and it is very environmentally friendly. This is very good!

CONSNet-Zero houses are very expensive and they cost $180/square foot + solar and design. Compared with a regular house, $100/square foot, With a difference of $80.

Fact Flash!

Did you know, that if you buy a Net-Zero home you will get money from the power plant and your energy bill won't be, this but
