Why should I use Green Energy Sources? The following article is going to give you simple advice to bring green energy into your home. One of the simplest ways that you can go green is by dressing warmly. Lighter sweaters can add 2 more degrees of warmth, while heavy sweaters increase warmth by 4 degrees. It is unnecessary to dress scantily at home, so pick up a sweater and save some money! If you heat your home with fuel oil, inquire about switching over to biodiesel. Sometimes you can make the switch to some use of biodiesel fuels without having to purchase new parts or make costly modifications. Biodiesel burns much cleaner, is more efficient than petroleum, and will lessen the impact your home has on the environment in wintertime. Keep adjusting your thermostat as the seasons change to ensure that you're using as little energy as possible. In winter, decrease the thermostat temperature a bit and increase the temperature a bit in summer. In addition to doing this, try wearing less or more clothing (depending on the weather), and reduce energy usage in your home and keep your temperature reasonable. You can increase the energy efficiency of your home by buying energy saving products. One of the most popular products to increase the energy efficiency of your home are double-pane windows that have received a high energy star rating. Utilizing these kinds of products permits you to reduce the costs of cooling and heating your home. Keep the heat as low as you can, unless you absolutely have to raise it. If it's a bit chilly, put sweatpants or a sweatshirt on. When you keep the heat unnecessarily high you use far more energy than you need to--and that is expensive! If your home isn't suitable for full solar paneling or other sources of renewable energy, maybe you can power some areas using this type of technology. For instance, you can use panels that could be used to heat your home's hot water. You can use biofuel to heat your own home. Biofuels are made out of a variety of things, including: oil, wood, and animal/vegetable fats. If your existing furnace runs on propane, it is quite easy for a professional to make the alterations required so it can perform as efficiently using a fuel blend. That is roughly 20 to 99 percent biodiesel. Talk to a pro before using this fuel inside your house. Energy consumption can be reduced by making your own ice. Ice makers often break down and normally use excess energy. Their seals can break down, too, which can cause the temperature inside your freezer to rise. By making ice the old fashioned way, you can save yourself money and energy.

If you heat your home with fuel oil, inquire about switching over to biodiesel. Sometimes you

can make the switch to some use of biodiesel fuels without having to purchase new parts or

make costly modifications. Biodiesel burns much cleaner, is more efficient than petroleum,

and will lessen the impact your home has on the environment in wintertime.

Keep adjusting your thermostat as the seasons change to ensure that you're using as little

energy as possible. In winter, decrease the thermostat temperature a bit and increase the

You can increase the energy efficiency of your home by buying energy saving products. One

Keep the heat as low as you can, unless you absolutely have to raise it. If it's a bit chilly, put

sweatpants or a sweatshirt on. When you keep the heat unnecessarily high you use far more

If your home isn't suitable for full solar paneling or other sources of renewable energy, maybe

you can power some areas using this type of technology. For instance, you can use panels
