Video shows real solar home and real people living in it

Posted on September 15, 2006. Filed under: Solar |

The New York Times produced and posted a video on a green subdivision, complete with solar power, in Sacramento.

In the video, homeowner Larry Brittain explains that in July Sacramento had 13 days over 107 or 110. His electricity bill was $73.23. In his previous 9-year-old home, he estimated his power bill would have been $300 to $335.

Brittian says:

I am conscious of the environment. I was a Boy Scout in the past. And so I do my typical duties of being good citizen. I’m recycling all the time. But it’s just an awareness

Once you buy a home like this and you see what you’re getting for your money, you want to do other things to contribute to the environment and to keep it safe.
