Conserving Energy
Hi Folks,
People living in industrialized countries have grown so accustomed to a plentiful supply of relatively cheap energy that we pretty much take it for granted. We seem to only pay attention to our use of energy when we find ourselves having to cut costs due to job loss, additional expenses, retirement, etc. Fortunately we are becoming more aware of the importance of conserving energy. We are learning that our resources are not unlimited and that their use is causing harm not only to our cities but to our world. So, whether you want to conserve energy to save money, help save our environment or both, the following are some areas where you can begin.
I hope you are having a nice day,
Woody

COST & ENERGY SAVING TIPS: Home Insulation
Hi Folks,
Sorry I have been absent from these pages for a few days. Fall is here in upstate South Carolina which, for me, equates to getting the lawn ready for winter. Yea gads, what a job! De-thatch, aerate, fertilize, over-seed. Frankly, when I came in from working outside, I was too tired to work on this blog.
I keep telling Janie that I’m getting too old for all this work but she just grins, she knows me better.
Have a great autumn,
