When it comes to going green, most people
think about buying a hybrid or electric car to save money at the gas pump. Or, they vow to do more to recycle their
trash. I even have a number of friends
who are fanatics when it comes to eating organic food and reducing their
reliance on chemicals and pesticides.
While all this is a good start when it comes to making less of an impact
on the environment, most of my friends have yet to consider doing something
about the biggest energy hog they have: Their home.
