Riassunto

No changing of habits required nor lots of spending on high tech gadgets to achieve energy independence. Illustrated and written with the general public in mind by H. A. Rasheed who worked as a Systems Analyst and Process Engineer at a major Fortune 100 corporation for seventeen years before retiring in 2005. This, his third book, takes a top down approach to our energy problems. Counter to other books on the same subject, he explains in easy to understand language effective "Green" and mostly "Low Tech" ways to improve our energy efficiencies. First, he talks about the automobile and points out why they consume so much energy. Second, he explores the heating and cooling of our houses. Third, he examines our appliances. All three approached with a detailed calorie by calorie accounting of our major needs to live comfortably, safely and most of all efficiently.
