If you’re thinking about other ways to be more sustainable, take a look at your local library! Sources may disagree slightly on some topics, so it’s good to look in a few different places before deciding on which changes to make in your life and in your home. It’s especially important to talk with contractors and other experts when considering upgrades to major parts of your house, like the HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) system, piping, or insulation. These retrofits can end up being a large construction project lasting several days, but are ultimately the greatest energy savers in the long run.
