Tapescript:

Heating and cooling equipment are the biggest users of energy in American homes And homes are responsible for about one fourth of the nation’s total energy use But there are surprisingly simple ways to deeply cut energy use, its effect on the environment and its cost

David Peabody and his team at Peabody Architects design passive homes He says the design of a passive house aims to reduce energy demand to its lowest possible level Passive houses use no solar, geothermal or wind energy equipment But they are extremely energy efficient

Mr Peabody says passive houses cut heating and cooling costs by about ninety percent But what sets his design apart from other "green homes" is that it looks like any other home
