If you watch the “Green Planet” channel, and have seen the show “World’s Greenest Homes”, well then you might get the idea.
I want to build an almost completely energy-efficient house, that is good, maybe even great, for the environment. Solar panels, wind turbines, and whatever else there could be that’d help. I don’t mind using recycled material for construction and furniture, and I definitely don’t mind if I have to have sturdy steel beams and etc. As long as it’s a very durable(in fact, I was hoping for: Durable enough to withstand natural and/or man made disasters), I don’t really mind style, but usually it seems the architecture of such houses ends up looking amazing anyway. If anyone knows of materials and furniture that can “really” last, that’d be nice.
I was hoping someone out there had some good ideas on how to learn all about this kind of stuff. Websites, books, E-books, guides. Prices to use on whatever you may know of don’t really matter since this is for my possible future.
I don’t need it to be too specific in all these areas, in fact, just respond to the title of this question if that’s okay!
Oh yeah brandon h, lol. I’ll have to update my picture, my hair “is” cut.

if your worried about the earth then cut your hair for the sake of humanity
What is he talking about, my hair is over 4 feet long, it’s my crown . . .
I think this is a great question and couldn’t have asked it better myself. Over the last couple of years, since I became aware and started making changes, I’ve just been doing a lot of reading and research. We want turbines and everything too. I think just planning and researching for as long as you have to is the key. There are so many options to choose from.
I teach people how to convert their entire house to better, safer products. I sleep so much better at night knowing I’m reduing the risk of our cancer, everyone in the home.
I’m glad to see someone else is concerned about green living too.
