Designing cheaper to run Homes

Australia Business

As with many complex projects, there is no one factor or idea that works for all economical building designs. What keeps buildings warm in winter may keep them too hot in summer; we need to approach climate in terms of keeping temperatures stable. Likewise, windows can cut the cost of lighting, but they can increase the cost of temperature control unless designed accordingly.

Some data:

  • Walls tend to keep in the heat more than windows. They are cheaper too.
  • Brick Veneer cost about $100.oo per square meter; double glazed windows cost $350.oo per square meter.
  • Insulation for walls costs about $10.oo per square meter, $17.oo for ceilings.
  • Good seals around doors and windows help with heating costs.
  • Windows aimed toward the Sun help with light and heating, but these will also loose heat at night or when the sun has moved during the day.
  • Allowing a breeze through the house will reduce cooling costs in summer.
  • Hot air rises. If you find a way to let the hot air escape the house will be cooler.

Window Tinting Perth

Tinted windows block the Infrared light that heats up housing, and the UV light that damages carpet and furniture (and which also causes sunburn). Yet they allow all the visible light through, so you need not use electrical lighting during the day.

Tinted windows save money with lighting and heating costs.

Some advantages of Immigration

Australia Business

Australia has had solid economic growth over the last generation, at least on paper. Experts will always debate the interpretation of the statistics and figures. But part of the story is immigration. Bringing more people into the country makes for a bigger economy, but how this affects the individuals and businesses is another matter. Some economic analysts suspect that there is a slightly larger economic pie being shared by a much larger number of people, so the individual person ultimately ends up with less.

There are frequent disagreements over any economic analysis, and further disagreement over the contributing factors. One issue is how ‘temporary’ migrants contribute to the situation; the number of temporary migrants not always be captured in the statistics.

Some worry that more migrants mean fewer jobs for locals, and that this forces wages to be lower. This may be a concern in the short term, but migration seems to benefit the economy, which translates to more jobs because business can expand and there are more people buying the services.

Governments can benefit from skilled migration, if only because the economy looks better on paper. Many suspect it prevents the country from falling into recession. Hopefully, this will translate to a better situation for individuals within the country as well.

Sweet without the Sugar

Australia Business

We know that sugar is one of the causes of tooth decay. Cutting down on sugar goes a long way to preventing dental problems

  • Use Stevia. This has nowhere near the decay problems of sugar. Stevia and sugar mixed together taste like plain sugar, but with reduced decay problems.
  • Coffee and tea are often sweetened; again, keep stevia on hand.
  • Use healthy snacks like nuts, pumpkin seeds, and most fruits. The minimal sugar in these causes few problems.
  • Remember many so-called ‘diet’ food are low fat and high sugar; they don’t really help our health, it’s just that they sound like a good option. Many fats are essential. Avoid gimmicks, and go natural.
  • Even if the sugar is not in the teeth it is in our system, and it flows through our body, including channels in the teeth. Higher fibre food is preferable as is stops sudden food sugar fluctuations.
  • Soda is full of sugar. Stevia soda is slightly better in this regard, but still not healthy.
  • Many breakfast bowls of cereal are full of sugar. Find something with less sugar and more fibre.
  • Many spread for toast and bread are full of sugar. Find alternatives.
  • Sleep in regular hours, avoiding shift work and late nights. Tiredness increases our craving for stimulants and sugar.
  • Gargle water after eating, it washes a lot of food off the teeth. Drinking water keeps the mouth moisturized, which helps prevent decay.

If we detox or fast for a few days (talk to a doctor first) we reset our appetite for sweet food. We crave it less after we have lived without sweet tastes for a while.

Some people find L-glutamine lowers their craving for sweet things. Consider the option, at least during a transition away from sugar
