Over the course of the last 5 years, I have made it my mission to reduce my carbon footprint.
I have tried to carry on a sustainable life.
It started with a strict meal method that would eliminate food waste, then it moved to planting my own vegetable garden! Within a year, my hubby as well as I had several chickens. All of us started shopping exclusively from locally sourced markets. Then the people I was with and I moved on to energy. All of us switched to solar powered electric as well as bought an electric car. At some point, our a/c stopped working. It had been in our apartment for far longer than the time that the people I was with and I had lived there. When it came time to upgrade our heating as well as cooling, it seemed prefer the perfect time to switch to geothermal energy! Geothermal heating as well as cooling uses the earth’s core temperature to heat as well as cool the home… Despite the decreasing seasonal weather, the earth’s core maintains a stable temperature. Geothermal heating as well as cooling goes into the ground as well as uses the earth’s temperature to heat or cool the apartment depending on the season. This is a more sustainable option that is better for the planet as well as uses less energy, however even though I knew it was the right thing to do to make the environmentally conscious decision, I distraught that it wouldn’t be as effective when it came to heating as well as cooling the house. However, after having geothermal heating as well as cooling for several years, it is entirely entirely effective! I have advocated it to all my friends as well as family. One of my friends entirely made the switch recently! I am blissful the people I was with and I can help others make a more sustainable living choice.
