SOLAR PANELS get high
marks as an environmental
purchase, but are very
expensive. As with other electronic technologies,
solar panels will get smaller,
lighter, quicker, more durable
AND less expensive with time. Right now,

WATER HEATERS can be as high-tech or as low-tech as the installer, and are an effective way to reduce the costs associated with washing. If your budget will allow, the tankless (or on-demand) water heater is a better bet for new buildings as well as for retrofits.

electricity. Wind turbines are not allowed in most urban or suburban areas, and the
variability of the wind,
meteorology and of transmission, limit this technology to geographically specific regions.
