In today’s world of extreme pollution, we must contribute our share to make a cleaner, greener world for the future generations to come. We can start with making our home cleaner, greener and make it an ideal eco friendly home.

So, what makes a home eco friendly? There are simple transformations which are to be done to live in a healthy environment.

Here some insider things which could make our home eco friendly:

We need to save energy. Putting some skylight over the rooms is one of the best ways in that goal. Sunrays are free and it will illuminate the interior of your home brilliantly. Some judicial placement will make your rooms more romantic, more habitable.

Using furniture made from recycled wood is saving our forests. We must not buy any kind of timber that is either accessed from rain forest or from any unauthorized sources.

Rainwater harvesting is another significant way to save surface water. Rain water can be collected and recycled for future use.

Using solar energy to generate electricity is in vogue. Not only that, we can run all our appliances from this electricity source. Even the solar water heater makes a significant difference in saving electricity.
Try to use CFL (Compact Fluorescent Lamp) instead of regular fittings. These bulbs consume less energy but produce more light.

Low flow toilet equipment is the next way to save water. Certainly it works at par with the regular bath fittings but uses less water. We will be saving in water bill also.

Those are some great things to make our home eco friendly, if you have another suggestion you could leave your thought by leaving comment in this page.
