Making a Greener Home

Moving into a house, I'm starting to take notice of the kinds of things that can be done to make it more energy efficient. There are many ways to enhance the efficiency of your home, some easy and some more complicated. With all of the options available, who knows what to choose?

Luckily, CNET has put together a comprehensive list for A Greener Home, Room by Room.The improvements listed range from getting smart power strips that shut off whenever the item that is plugged in turns off (getting rid of pesky vampires that suck electricity even when they're off) to adding more insulation to the attic. Other notable suggestions include a tankless water heater and caulking up air leaks around the house.

The list is organized in a way that separates projects into low, medium and high effort, making it easy to navigate and get an idea of what you can do for your own home. To read more about making a greener home, visit CNET.
