Sustainable living is the only way to maintain a wonderful
life
for ourselves and generations to come.
Unique solutions to the global warming crisis.
Ideas becoming reality.
Many
scientists are now saying "It's too late" to save the Earth and life as
we know it due to global warming and other things. We believe we can't
give up and must try. Sustainability is an emergency preventative
measure to those ends.
As many people are highly charged about the "pro-choice" vs. "pro-life"
issue, most have an opinion. If we don't all act immediately
though, there will be no more need for that, animal rights, or
environmental arguments. Because there will be no more "life" as we know
it.
SusPro.ORG is just one tool of many you can use, and must, if we are to
survive. It's no longer "wackos" making absurd claims, simply totally
agreed upon scientific fact. Supporting us and our supporters,
generously, is a vote for life support. We ARE doing something about it,
as much as possible.
Dale's earth-sheltered homes,
just one more example of thousands. See next example.
Durango CO. A
32-foot open ended design, this 1500 square foot home was built to blend with a
Victorian style. Three Bedrooms, two Bathrooms and a Sunroom with a deck. The
yearly heating cost is approximately $25.00, and the home is consistently very
comfortable. Between summer and winter the interior temperature fluctuates
between 65 and 72 degrees with no heat or A/C.
This low maintenance home was owner contracted and built for a family of 5. The
initial cost in 1985 was $55,000 dollars and it was appraised at $130,000 in
1995. Heavy snows only provide more insulation and there is never any worry
about frozen pipes or power failures.
