CARBON REDUCTION APP
Are you paying more money and emitting more greenhouse gas than you need to when heating your home? The Collingwood Climate Action Team has created a free and easy to use app to help you begin to assess this question.
Homes in Ontario, on average, generate significant amounts of operational GHG emissions because
1. They have less than ideal levels of insulation
2. Fossil fuel is the dominant source of energy used in existing Ontario homes.
Your home's annual GHG emissions per sq foot due to space heating is a function of your home's insulation levels. The greater the GHG emissions per sq foot the lower the insulation levels. Home heating and insulation levels is the number 1 place to explore when trying to reduce costs and GHG emissions in the average Ontario home.
