0 Subject: White roofs = big energy savings

Simple idea which can save some big bucks.

Most of us, of course, can barely afford our mortgages, let alone a new roof. But millions of people this year have to put on a new roof anyway, and lighter colored shingles will cut down energy costs substantially.

As some of you know, I had to get half of my roof replaced last year because of a leak, and the roofing guy talked me into getting light gray shingles instead of the dark brown ones that we had. Glad he did. Now, I just have to save up some money to do the other half of the roof...

Considering that global warming is a hoax...



...this is a greener and more effective solution. One which I have had on my personal wishlist lately.

Energy efficiency isn't about global warming, Baldwin. It is about saving $$$.
