My Green Firehouse
My green Firehouse is an environmentally helpful home and is great for
people. It is south-facing with lots of windows so the heat can be let
in. It is located in the community to help the firemen get to fires faster.
The station is designed very small to help the environment by using less
space. This helps by using less heat to keep the house warm, and allows
for quick exits for the firemen. I will use bamboo floors because they
look just as nice as oak but regenerate faster. I'll use low voc paint
for the walls and denim jeans as the insulators. The water in my house
will be from collected rain and recycled grey water. My house is peaked
slightly to let the rain filter into the rain collector. The energy source
is solar panels. This is my green fire station.
