Purpose
To become more aware of eco-friendly materials by building your own virtual "green" house!
Instructions
Click on this link. Then click on "start building." Choose a climate where you will build your house. Then click "construction" and choose the type of material you want to build your house with (keep in mind you only have $100,000 to work with, so choose wisely!). Once you've chosen your material, click on "energy." Choose what source of energy you want to run your house (you can choose more than one way!). Finally, click on "efficiency" and choose the types of efficiency materials you would like in your home. When you are finished, click on the "check efficiency" button on the top right (next to your budget). See how much money you spent and also see how efficient your home is based on an efficiency scale!
Having a clean environment is very important for physical activity and overall health in general. No matter where you live, it is important to get outside and get moving! For more information on this topic, you can check out these links:

ReplyDeleteI like this but my house that I wanted would be about $97,000 and it would be 180% eco-friendly!! I would love to do this in real life but I don't think I have that kind of $$...but maybe someday I will and I will invite you over to check it out too!!
