How Eco Friendly is Your Home?

by terresteinbeck RODEO REALTY

Stop wondering how you’ll cover the costs of all those holiday gifts. Instead, start wondering how you’ll pay for all that energy you could be squandering from the confines of your comfy house. That’s right. You may think your L.A. home makes the green scene in a satisfactory way. But chances are, you’re overlooking some key routes to eco-friendliness. No problem. The following steps will help you get your green on. Amazingly, they’re both simple and low-cost. So no excuses. Ring in the New Year right by doing something positive for your home, the environment, and your wallet.

The Green Clean. Wipe away dirt and grime with environmentally-save cleaning products. The world abounds with choices in this department. If dollar-stretching is an activity you enjoy, baking soda, vinegar, and lemon are excellent alternatives to conventional  cleaners.

Light Touch. Try this simple exercise: reach for the light switch and switch it to ‘off’ position before you leave a room. This easy move reduces energy usage and the amount of pollutants emitted by your power provider.

Fill ‘Em Up. Wall and ceiling cracks invite warm air to escape from your home and cash to escape from your personal stash. So get in there and caulk those cracks.

Choose a Compact. Consider using a mobile device or laptop for your at-home computing. These little workhorses gobble up far less energy than desktop behemoths. And they take up far less of your living space.

Would you like to learn more about giving your home the green touch? Or maybe you have your own way to save energy. I’d really like to hear about it, so feel free to reach out in my direction.  Or fire your questions and comments into the comment box below. There’s always a vacancy.
