You probably know that your home produces more global-warming pollution than your car, but what can you do? How can you turn your existing house into one that simultaneously saves you money on utilities and insulates you from Peak Oil? Rebekah and Stephen Hren weaned themselves completely from fossil fuels in their conventional 1930s urban house; this guide for renovating existing homes gives you the hands-on knowledge to do the same with projects small and large, listed by skill, time, cost, and energy saved. 320 pp.
