The Green Christian: Put on a sweater
When I complained that it was cold in my house, my dad would say, “Of course you’re cold. You’re wearing a t-shirt and it’s winter. Put on a sweater!” Did you know that each degree you turn down the heat saves 3 percent of heating costs, while each degree you raise the temperature of your [...]
