Improving home energy efficiency has a huge environmental impact. That’s why we most of us started doing this work, after all. (Making homes more comfortable and helping people save money turn out to be a pretty terrific side benefits.)
Still, it’s easy to get discouraged. If you do, take a look at the Mother Nature Network’s quick look back at the past four decades of America’s modern environmental movement. We’ve come a long way since the first Earth Day on April 22, 1970!

Warmer weather brings a sense of relief – no more shoveling! – and its own to-do list. Before you get too deep into all those projects, schedule a FREE one-hour consult with Evergreen Home Performance to evaluate how your home performed this winter.
It’s been 43 years since the first Earth Day. On that day – April 22, 1970 – 20 million Americans took to streets, parks, and auditoriums across the country to demonstrate for a healthy, sustainable environment. It was the birth of a movement that continues to challenge the status quo and push us to take responsibility for our impact on the environment.

The short answer: They look pretty terrific.
