GEE1.1 S5 Week 7 Monday Clock-In by Sheila Dingcong https://padlet.com/sdingcong1784/5liusayclafjmmpy If you are to think about a sustainable house, how will you imagine it to look like and what can be its features? You can draw this house or post a picture of a sustainable house. Give a brief explanation. en-us 2020-10-14 10:27:03 UTC 2025-11-15 04:58:29 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.net/icons/png/23f3.png Michaela Acilo macilo0075 https://padlet.com/sdingcong1784/5liusayclafjmmpy/wish/952137628 If I were to think about a sustainable house, it would obtain some of these the features: 
-Big windows = Reduction of electricity use.
-Interior and exterior foliage = purify the air and reduction of appliance use.
-Lite block concrete - insulates heat from outside to inside to lessen the use of electricity.

1. Smart Technology -  reduces home's energy consumption, energy efficient LED bulbs.
2. Renewable energy - reduce energy bills generating electricity from the sun by using solar panels.
3. Sustainable building materials - constructing a home that lasts—and a longer-lasting home means lower maintenance costs and less up-keep. 
4. Organic Garden - Planting a selection of native plants can improve the aesthetic qualities of the home and supply you with supplementary organic goods.]]> 2020-11-24 06:14:35 UTC https://padlet.com/sdingcong1784/5liusayclafjmmpy/wish/955019770 Chloe Basco https://padlet.com/sdingcong1784/5liusayclafjmmpy/wish/955599738 If I were to think about a sustainable house I would put 
1. a light well and use big windows to maximize the natural light coming inside the house.
2. Use hallow blocks made from plastic to help reduce the plastic wastes.
3. like what is shown in the picture, a sustainable home feature has areas of the house where you can plant to promote a healthier environment

Instead of the traditional incandescent lightbulbs, LED Bulbs would be use because they last up to 25 times longer and more energy efficient.]]> 2020-11-24 14:09:49 UTC https://padlet.com/sdingcong1784/5liusayclafjmmpy/wish/956245386 Renee Ann Lagata https://padlet.com/sdingcong1784/5liusayclafjmmpy/wish/958229646 The following are the features of a sustainable house that I am thinking of:

  • Ceiling boards and insulations of walls 
To make house more comfortable by blocking the heat from outside and help in saving money for energy consumption
  • Double glazed and wide windows 
Double glazed windows help to insulate the house, making it cooler during the summer
Wide windows to make use of the sunlight efficiently.

  • Appliances that are more energy-efficient 

Making energy consumption more efficient and lesser but the durability will not compromise.

  • Usage of renewable energy source.
This is done through the installation of a small-scale wind turbine or micro-hydro system.
  • Indoor plants

creating a calm environment for sustainability. Plants also act as natural air purifiers.

- Solar power is quite pricey but if you come to think it has a lot of benefits like it reduces the electric bill and energy consumption, have a long life span.
- Radiant in-floor heat keeps warmth where it is needed at human level.
- Highly efficient building envelope with spray-in foam insulations which are more effective than fiberglass batting and minimizes mold air infiltration.
-  Large window groupings are used to bring in maximum natural daylighting. When possible, they utilize clerestory windows, 2-story spaces, and translucent walls to bring natural light into every part of the home.]]> 2020-11-25 02:15:07 UTC https://padlet.com/sdingcong1784/5liusayclafjmmpy/wish/958434799 Moshelle Gerodias mgerodias0106 https://padlet.com/sdingcong1784/5liusayclafjmmpy/wish/959800566 If I were to imagine my future sustainable house i would be replacing traditional incandescent light bulbs with energy efficient LED bulbs. I would be living in the woods with fresh air and far from the polluted city adding a lot of plants inside my home to circulate fresh air and removes bad toxins. To reduce my energy bills by generating electricity from the sun through the use of solar panels. ]]> 2020-11-25 13:32:38 UTC https://padlet.com/sdingcong1784/5liusayclafjmmpy/wish/959800566 Chloe Magno https://padlet.com/sdingcong1784/5liusayclafjmmpy/wish/965059075 Whenever I see vlogs of couples who live in a trailer, a part of me gets envious. Ever since I've imagined myself living in one and I think it would be very interesting and life-changing experience. Although I don't think I can live inside a trailer forever, I can opt for a small but compact sustainable house just like the one pictured below. Aside from the small footprint With space tight, all items, from carpentry to appliances, are compact, functional and eco-friendly, which in turn reduces living costs like utilities, cleaning and maintenance.

The materials I use will be sustainable and basically everything I use and own in my house would use less or maybe no plastic at all. ]]> 2020-12-02 00:19:25 UTC https://padlet.com/sdingcong1784/5liusayclafjmmpy/wish/978097866 Jamieline Cortez jcortez0093 https://padlet.com/sdingcong1784/5liusayclafjmmpy/wish/978598125 My idea of a sustainable home is a house that uses materials that can decrease waste and green house gas. Like using LED lights that saves more power and energy. Using non-toxic materials in building the house is also applicable since it will eliminate hazards. I also consider a garden space so that you can plant your own produce and create fresh air from plants. ]]> 2020-12-02 04:50:10 UTC https://padlet.com/sdingcong1784/5liusayclafjmmpy/wish/978598125
