Cryptocurrency is still incredibly popular. If you pay close attention to what you’re doing, you can invest well in it. Of course, prices fluctuate. But that also happens with stocks on the stock market. If you never take a gamble in life, then you’re leading a rather dull existence. If you make money by investing in crypto, you can spend it on a nice vacation. But you can also invest it in your home. And you will enjoy that way longer than three weeks in the Maldives.
Why is sustainability important?
Many people see climate change as something far removed from their lives. It’s something for later, for generations after mine. But nothing could be further from the truth. We need to stop using fossil fuels within a few decades. If we don’t, the earth will be destroyed much faster than we currently assume. If we want to keep the planet livable, we need to take action now. This is not just what climate activists proclaim during a demonstration. It is the harsh truth supported by scientific research. You can contribute to this by making your home more sustainable.
Everyone can insulate
When we say that everyone can insulate, we don’t mean that you have to do it literally yourself. Almost every home in the Netherlands is suitable for cavity wall insulation. Insulating material is sprayed between the two outer walls. The space between those walls is called the cavity, hence the term. By insulating the outer walls of a house, the heat in the home is retained much better. The logical consequence is that you have to heat less. An added benefit is that you make the house suitable for alternatives to the central heating boiler, such as a heat pump or connection to a district heating network.
Old houses don’t have cavity walls
In the early 20th century, no one was aware of environmental risks. Houses built during that time often did not have cavity walls. Therefore, insulation in that way is not possible. But you can choose insulation with a drywall. The walls are placed on the inside against the outer walls, which effectively creates the same effect as if you were insulating the cavity walls. You not only benefit from reduced heat loss but also from increased living comfort. Moisture and mold have less chance in the home. You may be able to receive subsidies for insulating your home in certain cases. You can inquire about more information from your municipality.
