The Most Energy Efficient Home

After watching segments of The Crash Course in class, and seeing how Chris moved from the "perfect, American" home to one that was completely opposite, I couldn't help to wonder which home was the most energy efficient. I googled it and came upon this really neat video of a Green architect named Charlie Szoradi, the man who built this green home. He brings up a lot of important points that we've all discussed in class such as overpopulation, the depletion of fossil fuels and depleting resources, the saying of "thinking globally by thinking locally", and our scary future. What he did, his story, is truly amazing!

And it also highlights the theme of the power of one, and the difference that person can make.

Take a peek at it HERE. :)

And have a happy, GREEN day!
