Energy-saving buildings

Energy-saving construction is very necessary because of construction waste is a lot of energy. I would like to ask everyone to talk about this topic.

Passive houses (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passive_house#Space_heating) that only have 10% or less of the heating requirements of a typical one are an important part of a green community.

If people paint heir roof white it saves a lot on air conditioning and the energy spent on it. My mechanic's electric bill went down three hundred dollars just because he painted his mobile's roof white. That is something everyone could do, also will reduce global warming. :thumbup1:

Or even better, use solar collectors to get hot water.

"In our building you can have breakfast facing sunrise and dinner in front of sunset over the ocean without moving from your room"
Now why would I want that? Or better why would I want to pay for something like that.
"...is made out of natural materials"
You mean gravel, clay and wood? :D
