Building Environmentally Sound
Homes
As our planet
continues to take more and more
of a beating, there has been a
real emergence of building
environmentally conscious
housing. In years past homes were
constructed with materials that
were not only damaging to the
environment but as we eventually
discovered, harmful to us as
well. Prime examples of this were
the use of things like lead based
paint and piping and asbestos.
These materials have caused an
amazing amount of damage to the
planet and to people's health.
Today the
concept of constructing homes
that are considerate to the
planet has become more than an
idea; it has become an absolute
necessity. The focus of this
movement is the construction of
homes using recycled and
renewable resources. It also
focuses on clean power sources.
These power sources have little
to no negative impact on the
environment as they harness the
power of sun (solar power) and
aim to reduce the amount of
electrical and gas power needed
to keep the home comfortable.
Another great idea that is
helping the environment is
designing homes with efficient
drainage which assists in the
replenishing of ground water
resources.
Homes that are
properly insulated require far
less electricity to heat. The end
result of this kind of building
philosophy is that it will cost
less for the owner to heat and
maintain. However the most
desirable result of these types
of homes and policies is the
reduced impact that construction
is having on the environment and
the planet. With the population
on the rise and industry on the
rise too, we as residents of this
planet need to do everything in
our power to ensure the safety
and longevity of our habitat.
