I put olive oil on a aluminum foil and place it on a cookie sheetI coat the potatoes and carrots with olive oil at 425 degrees for 20 minutesI even tried to lower the heat to 400 degreesWhy are the carrots always burnt? What am I doing wrong?
Well, that is pretty tough, because it depends on how you define environmentally friendlyTo me, that means doesn't break down for a long time, so you don't have to re-insulate and reside your house every few yearsIt also depends on where you live, to some extent, as I assure you there are vastly different ways of attacking this problem in Tuscon, AZ and Fairbanks, AKIn Tucson, you may want to go with an adobe dense material transfer approach, whereas here in Alaska we are looking more at rigid foam and the outside insulation technique.
THere are alot of good materials listed but one that is already bundled up that is a renewable resource is straw balesTheir R value is quite high they are already bundled up and ready to go the only down side is your walls are gonna be kinda thick but thats not so badHope that helps
Fiber glass and rock and slag wool insulations benefit the environment in a number of waysInsulation is a key to energy efficiency in commercial, residential and industrial facilities of all kindsInsulation in factories can help reduce emissions of green house and other gases, and reduce energy consumptionBecause these products use a high level of post-consumer, recycled products, NAIMA members help reduce reliance on virgin resourcesFor more on the many environmental benefits of these products, visit our section on the environment by clicking here^ top How do I know which insulation products are the most environmentally-friendly? There are a number of so-called green products on the market, but to be truly environmentally friendly a product must do more than just use recycled goodsFiber glass and mineral wool insulation manufacturers have improved their manufacturing processes to reduce transportation loads and energy usageBecause these products are highly compact, fewer bags are needed on the jobsite and packaging these products creates less wasteFiber glass relies on post-consumer glass and uses millions of pounds every year, creating one of the largest markets for recycled glass according to the Glass Packaging InstituteSince glass is made from sand, any new glass used in insulation comes from a rapidly renewable resource, unlike insulation products that rely on secondary wood products as their base materialSlag wool insulation uses raw materials derived from a secondary source - blast furnace slag - and does not deplete any natural resourcesIn many cases, NAIMA members recover blast furnace slag from landfills to use in their manufacturing process
My great aunt uncle built a house back before there was insulation.They used cereal boxes other boxes, newspaper, old clothes, and paperYou can find so much to fill your walls ceilingsI would try to stay away from the food boxes as bugs will sense the foodThen you'll have a bug problemGood luck keep up the good work.
