\u201cWhat\u00a0one item helps people, pocketbooks and the planet? \u00a0Insulation.\u201d \u00a0This is the message driven in\u00a0the video<\/a>\u00a0released by the North American\u00a0Insulation Manufacturers Association (NAIMA) on April 21, one day before Earth\u00a0Day. \u00a0It is a message we can be reminded\u00a0of again today.<\/p>\n

Today\u00a0is World Environment Day, celebrated by raising awareness internationally on\u00a0environmental issues and by demonstrating ways we can take positive action to\u00a0protect our environment and our planet. \u00a0One\u00a0way we can take action is by making homes and buildings more energy\u00a0efficient.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn\u00a0Canada, about 16 per cent of energy use is for residential buildings,\u201d said Hua\u00a0Ge, an Engineering assistant professor at Concordia University, in an\u00a0interview with the Montreal Gazette<\/a>, \u201cAbout 60 per\u00a0cent of that energy is for space heating, which is mostly due to heat loss\u00a0through the building envelope\u201d.<\/p>\n

Heat\u00a0and cooled air lost through the roof, walls, or floors \u2013 or the building\u00a0envelope \u2013 is responsible for\u00a040 per cent of Canada\u2019s total GHG emissions<\/a>. \u00a0It is also responsible for draftiness\u00a0throughout the winter and increasing your energy bills throughout the\u00a0year.<\/p>\n

NAIMA\u2019s\u00a0video reminds us that adding insulation to homes is a relatively simple,\u00a0low-cost home improvement offering benefits that are friendly to your\u00a0pocketbook and our planet. \u00a0Additional insulation can reduce utility costs\u00a0and overall energy use when compared with an uninsulated building.<\/p>\n

There\u00a0may be\u00a0financial incentives and rebates<\/a>\u00a0offered to you by your local\u00a0government, bank, or utility company, so be sure to check if you can save some\u00a0money on your insulation project.<\/p>\n
