Benefits to Environment
SAVING ENERGY RESOURCES:
The United States uses 56% less energy today than if we didn't have energy-efficient technologies and policies. California has saved billions and its conservation of energy and reduction in energy consumption has saved the state from having to build more power plants. If we didn't have energy efficiency, we'd have to produce or import energy sources like oil, natural gas, and coal. So, energy efficiency helps us keep more resources on the earth longer.
REDUCE POLLUTION:
From power plants to cars, consuming energy can produce emissions that harm our environment. But investments in energy efficiency home improvements can help homeowners reduce their carbon footprint. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, most energy supplied to residences comes from burning fossil fuels, which releases pollutants into the atmosphere. The severe weather changes seen in recent year is already hurting property owners across the country and climate change can also damage public infrastructure, causing inconvenience and higher property taxes to make repairs.
Homeowners can make small changes to help reduce their energy use, by turning off lights and not using appliances until after 6pm. But, if you would prefer to make bigger energy improvements, Lewis and Yul can assess your usage and make the appropriate energy-efficient upgrades that can add up to big savings.
