It’s going to be a banner year for energy efficiency, according to green-tech experts, and at Henges Insulation, we couldn’t be more thrilled.
“Home energy use accounts for 21 percent of the nation’s carbon footprint,” according to an article in the San Jose Mercury News, a number that’s “twice the carbon emissions of passenger cars.”
And ever since President Obama proclaimed insulation “sexy,” you can bet that it’s an issue this administration is not taking lightly.
According to a memo by the President’s Economic Recovery Advisory Board, “There are 100 million homes in America, and energy-saving measures like insulation, caulking, and heating and cooling system ugrades can reduce household energy consumption by 10 percent to 40 percent.”
So what are you waiting for?
