Show transcript
Thermal insulators can reduce the energy needed to heat a building. Improving a building's insulation makes it easier to heat it using only renewable resources. Thermostats can control temperature automatically in different rooms and help reduce unnecessary heating. The greater the temperature difference between the inside and outside of a house, the faster it warms up or cools down Planting near a house increases the outside temperature on cold days and decreases it on hot days
