Easy points: Help with Greenhouse environmental project?????
I am doing a project and I have to build a greenhouse and within that house have 20 things that contribute to energy savings.
Examples are
flourescent lights
solar panel
rain catcher
ceiling fans (cool off house w/o using thermo)
Vinyl windows
Curtains to block out heat
wind turbine outside to produce electricity
Etc
Please give me some more ideas. I cant think of anymore
Greenhouse like a place you grow plants? Or “green” house?
Fluorescent bulbs contain mercury. So there’s a tradeoff nobody is telling you about.
The process for making solar panels uses all kinds of poisons. Another tradeoff.
Wind turbine is ok, depends how much wind you get.
Curtains let the sun in in winter and block it in summer. Another good one. There are also insulated blinds.
Here are my thoughts. I have so few.
1) Use no hazardous cleaning products. Hint: Just about everything they sell in the grocery store is hazardous.
2) Recycle “gray” water for use on the garden. That means shower water but not toilet water. If you’ve switched to non-toxic cleaners you can do this.
3) Compost vegetable matter and paper instead of throwing it in the trash.
4) Reuse plastic bottles, even the ones that can be recycled.
5) Buy minimally packaged groceries.
6) Reuse the plastic bags that you get off the roll in the vegetable dept.
7) Geothermic heat pump – this is NOT the thing that the heater makers are calling a heat pump. It goes deep into the ground.
Heat water with the sun – a system of black plastic pipes on the roof.
9) Use hand-operated appliances and garden tools.
10) Install light switches that turn off the lights when nobody is in the room – small thing.
11) Buy a smaller refrigerator next time.
12) Use a thermostat with a built-in timer to automatically use less energy when you aren’t home.
13) Set up an exercise bike or treadmill with a generator to power the TV.
