Eco Housing High

This eco-friendly housing design caught my eye recently. Melbourne's The Age newspaper, reported on 19 March 2012 about Housing on a Green High, buildings using hemp in the walls.
Some years ago friends and family used Hebel, another material not commonly found in Melbourne buildings.
My family members have enjoyed 12 years of lower cost living as a result of good insulation, double-glazing and solar hot water. The house didn't cost a million bucks to build either!
Quite a comparison to the McMansions being built up the road.
If we want to have lower power, water and petrol bills, then we must look at improving the way we do things.
So good luck to the CERES people with the launch of their Electric Vehicle re-charging point today.

See you at the petrol  bowser, handing out $1.65 per litre and pity me on holiday soon, driving around at $2.00 per litre!
