			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Are you in the wedding moment? In this happy time, I think you should do something to be as your good memory. If you don&#8217;t have any idea, I would like to recommend you one interesting idea which is recording your video clip since you were engaged until be wedding.</p>
<p><img src="http://i168.photobucket.com/albums/u170/nokhathai/Wedding/3082575702_8a6e1f0cf8.jpg" border="0" alt="recently engaged" width="447" height="297" /></p>
<p>Moreover, you can send this video clip to <a href="https://www.supimalastingmoments.com/" target="_blank">Supima lasting moments free contest</a> which is waiting for the engaged brides impressive stories. It will give its qualified home good for the winner. You may suspect why I&#8217;m interested in this contest. The main reason is this brand offers too many products like bedding and bath stuffs.</p>
<p><span id="more-61"></span></p>
<p>I punctiliously choose these stuffs because they are so important for our lifestyle, can you imagine how comfortable it is? Also, this company used the finest cotton in the manufactures which are so stronger than the other type of cotton and I really like them.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There are so many things we do every day that use energy-therefore we have so many opportunities every day to make a difference. Global warming, experts contend, is an urgent problem-but there are concrete steps every American can take to be part of the solution.</p>
<p><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2611/3809925765_804777c80f.jpg" alt="Global Warming" width="447" height="298" /></p>
<p><strong>The Global Warming Problem </strong></p>
<p>When cars, factories and power plants burn fossil fuels, such as oil and gas, they release global-warming pollution. These pollutants accumulate in the atmosphere for many decades, acting like a huge blanket that traps heat. That, in turn, warms our planet. The global-warming pollution, primarily carbon dioxide, emitted from the first model T&#8217;s is still in the atmosphere, acting as a thickening layer of insulation.</p>
<p><span id="more-59"></span></p>
<p>With our increased reliance on fossil fuels, the concentration of these pollutants continues to accumulate, threatening the stability of our climate. Distinguished scientists across the nation have been surprised by the speed and severity of the issue and its effects on people&#8217;s lives: the elderly suffering from heat waves, families whose homes are threatened by floods and eroding coastlines, hunters and anglers watching wildlife disappear and homeowners who are at risk of mudslides.</p>
<p>Scientists are convinced that we now have a small window of time to avoid the most dangerous consequences. If we join together now to solve this problem, they say, our children may be spared even more dramatic effects within their lifetimes.</p>
<p><strong>Some Global Warming Solutions </strong></p>
<p>To help, there&#8217;s a Web site that lists easy ways to help slow down global warming. For example, did you know that:</p>
<ul>
<li> An energy-conscious family can reduce its global-warming pollution contribution by over 35,000 pounds per year by taking such simple steps as selecting Energy Star appliances and insulating their house.</li>
<li>You can save money on electricity by installing a programmable thermostat, which reduces global-warming pollution.</li>
<li>If you plan your trips to combine errands, this will reduce emissions, saving gas, wear and tear on your car, and your valuable time.</li>
</ul>
<p>Whatever kind of vehicle you drive, choosing the most fuel-efficient model in its class is the single most important way to cut global-warming pollution.</p>
<p>&#8220;Global warming is the most serious environmental challenge of our time. It is more urgent and its dangers are more fundamental than most Americans realize,&#8221; explained Fred Krupp, President of Environmental Defense. &#8220;Millions of individual Americans acting together add up to a powerful part of the solution.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone" title="Stop Glabal Warming" src="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/229/454888030_677be7d62d.jpg" alt="" width="447" height="299" /></p>
<p>Many of the trans-formative solutions will emerge from America, the country with the deepest reservoir of scientists, engineers and bold investors.&#8221; Environmental Defense is a centrist organization dedicated to protecting the environmental rights of all people, including the right to clean air, clean water, healthy food and flourishing ecosystems.</p>
<p>Guided by science, Environmental Defense works to create practical solutions that win lasting economic and social support because they are nonpartisan, cost-effective and fair.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>You can show a bit of love for the environment by carefully considering what you buy. If Valentines Day is an essential day for you or the one you love. Here are a few distinctive gift ideas that make a positive ecological impact;</p>
<p><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3589/3328864231_e36d5b358c.jpg" alt="Natural Perfume" width="447" height="447" /></p>
<p><strong>Give Natural perfumes and fragrances</strong><br />
Many perfume fragrances are synthetic and often made from toxic petrochemicals derived from crude oil. There are more earth friendly alternatives and it is easy to make your own natural perfume too.</p>
<p><span id="more-57"></span></p>
<p><strong>Give Organic Flowers</strong><br />
Conventionally grown flowers are often dangerous to the environment and the workers involved with growing them. An option to giving cut flowers is seeking out locally grown live houseplants. There are plenty of flowering varieties available, and they are beautiful, year-round gifts, which add vibrancy to homes and offices. One of the advantages to purchasing plants grown close to where you live is that you are not contributing to the resource use and greenhouse gas emissions of air shipping, which is common with imported flowers.</p>
<p><strong>Give Organic Wine and Spa Set</strong><br />
Picture this: Your loved one walks into the bathroom — and it has been transformed into a spa. A lavender-scented hot bath has been drawn. Wine and chocolates are waiting in a tray by the tub. Moreover, you are waiting to give a massage with natural oils. Sound good? This case has all the organic goodies you will need &#8211; just add candles. Only problem: You will have to clean the tub. Now, that is love.</p>
<p><strong>Use your imagination</strong><br />
Romance is about spontaneity, inventiveness, and the personal touch. We have given you five specific suggestions for greening your Valentine, but there must be dozens more.</p>
<p><strong>Fair Trade chocolate is sweeter</strong><br />
Everybody loves chocolate. It tastes excellent; it makes you feel good; and it is hard to imagine Valentine’s Day without its sweetness. However, all is not well in the chocolate industry. Like coffee, chocolate is produced in some of the most economically disadvantaged regions of the world. Cocoa bean farmers find themselves under tremendous price pressure from buying cartels.</p>
<p>The result is institutionalized poverty and an alarming reliance on abusive child labor. It all filters down to the candy aisle at your favorite grocery store. The solution for responsible consumers is Fair Trade cocoa and chocolate. Fair Trade certification guarantees that cocoa farmers receive a guaranteed “floor price” of at least 80 U.S. cents for non-organic cocoa, and a premium for produce meeting organic standards. This is often well above the market price, and the upcharge is passed to consumers. In return, the cocoa producers warrant a variety of progressive labor and environmental practices. It works out for everyone.</p>
<p>Give cards that use recyclable paper, send e-mail cards, or make your own.</p>
<ul>
<li>Choose a locally made card, rather than one that has been mass-produced and traveled a long way to reach you.</li>
<li>Choose a card with little or no glitter &#8211; these are easier to recycle</li>
<li>Make your own card &#8211; you might get extra points for effort.</li>
<li>Go traditional and write your own love note.</li>
<li>Send an e-card (save the trees!).</li>
</ul>
<p>And don&#8217;t forget to use only reusable bags, bottles or recyclable containers too.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Replacement Windows is a good idea if you want to help the environment. Because it allows you to use less energy and produce less greenhouse gases. Many kinds of windows and replacement methods will have to be decided on evaluate. A window which replaces is not done on one to one basis, when you are taking out the old window this is not entirely replaced by a new window. While you are removing the old window you would remove the other parts. Window replacements are better at keeping the heat in the winter, and cooler air in the summer.</p>
<p><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3348/3426867801_368357c522_o.jpg" alt="Replacement Windows" width="447" height="341" /></p>
<p>Some of the state of the insulated windows is the reduction of outside sounds. If you live around Virginia find <a href="http://www.metro-contractors.com/windows" target="_blank">replacement windows Fairfax VA</a>, the service will include replacement windows in your budget when figuring how much it will cost to upgrade your dwelling. Replacement windows offer other benefits such as insulation against the noise of traffic and other outdoor noises. Windows prices for energy efficient windows can vary as well.</p>
<p><span id="more-52"></span></p>
<p>The replacement windows do the same options as the new construction windows, but smaller than the original. The replacement window may be a double hung window which moves up and down, or a casement window that swings in and out. Before assuming that you do not need to get any kind of replacement window just visit<a href="http://www.metro-contractors.com/" target="_blank"> windows Fairfax VA</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Granite is a beautiful stone that will increase the value of any home. It will give your rooms look well and adding to the style you are looking for. Today, I would like to suggest <a href="http://mrdirectint.com/sinksandfaucets/trugranite-sinks-c-47.html" target="_blank">granite sink</a> that I just choose for my kitchen.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There is new and stronger evidence that most of the warming over the last 50 years is attributable to human activities. The Earth&#8217;s surface temperature has risen by about 1 degree Fahrenheit in the past century, with accelerated warming during the past two decades. Human activities have altered the chemical composition of the atmosphere through the buildup of greenhouse gases primarily carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide.</p>
<p><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2393/2172273263_3981a50b81.jpg" alt="Global Warming" width="447" height="297" /></p>
<p>The heat-trapping property of these gases is undisputed although uncertainties exist about exactly how earth&#8217;s climate responds to them. Energy from the sun drives the earth&#8217;s weather and climate, and heats the earth&#8217;s surface; in turn, the earth radiates energy back into space. Atmospheric greenhouse gases trap some of the outgoing energy, retaining heat somewhat like the glass panels of a greenhouse. Without this natural &#8216;greenhouse effect&#8217;, temperatures would be much lower than they are now, and life as known today would not be possible. <span id="more-32"></span> Instead, thanks to greenhouse gases, the earth&#8217;s average temperature is a more hospitable 60°F. However, problems may arise when the atmospheric concentration of greenhouse gases increases. Since the beginning of the industrial revolution, atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide have increased nearly 30%, methane concentrations have more than doubled, and nitrous oxide concentrations have risen by about 15%. These increases have enhanced the heat-trapping capability of the earth&#8217;s atmosphere.</p>
<p>Consequently, the temperature of the planet earth is rising. Fossil fuels burned to run cars and trucks, heat homes and businesses, and power factories are responsible for about 98% of world carbon dioxide emissions, 24% of methane emissions, and 18% of nitrous oxide emissions. Increased agriculture, deforestation, landfills, industrial production, and mining also contribute a significant share of emissions.</p>
<p>All these have dramatically reduce the lifespan of living earth. The quest for efficient energy affects every country on the planet. Worldwide there is an increasing interest in developing clean, reliable alternatives to petroleum fuels. Many smart, safe, and clean alternative power sources are available in the market.</p>
<p>People can easily install these clean power sources at their home as alternative energy to help reducing carbon dioxide emission as well as reducing their utilities bill. In recent year, people has come up with alternative power sources run their cars in order to reduce the spending on petrol gas and of course, reduce the carbon dioxide emission. It is easy and at the same time, you could save money! Please play your part on global warming.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It’s no secret that in general, money is a little bit tight these days. Everyone is doing what they can to save money. Reducing your energy bills not only saves you money, it’s good for the environment as well. But how can you do this without sacrificing the A/C or heat you may need to get through the extreme temperatures of the summer and winter? The answer is in how you select your <a href="http://www.horizonyc.com/">window treatments</a>.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.horizonyc.com/images/products/products_home/vertical/vertical1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Let’s say you live in a region where it is cold most of the year and your biggest concern is losing heat. If correctly installed, window shades can be one of the simplest and most effective ways to prevent heat loss. Shades that are mounted as close to the glass as possible with the sides of the shade close to the wall create a sealed air space, making it difficult for the heat to escape. During the winter, shades should be raised on the south side of the house in the daytime to let in the heat from the sunlight and then lowered at night. Dual shades are even more effective for insulating as they are reflective on one side and heat absorbent on the other. These types of shades must be drawn all day to be effective and the reflective side should always face the warmest side. <span id="more-29"></span> Draperies are a very common form of window treatment, but it is difficult to generalize about their energy efficiency as it relies on many factors. Draperies can reduce heat gain by up to 33% if they are medium-colored and have white plastic backings. They are also perfect for summer weather as their pleats and folds lose heat through convection. Unfortunately, most conventional draperies can only reduce heat loss by 10%.</p>
<p>However, if they are hung as close to the window as possible with a cornice installed at the top and the drapery is sealed at both sides and overlapped in the center, you can push it to about 25%. If heat gain is your primary concern, it might be best to go with blinds. Because of the numerous openings between the slats, blinds are much more effective at reducing heat gain in the summer than heat loss in the winter.</p>
<p>But, the advantage blinds have over shades is that these slats and be adjusted to control light and ventilation. Heat gain can be reduced by around 45% when highly reflective blinds are completely closed and lowered on a sunny window. There is no single type of window treatment that can be <a href="http://greenliving.nicehomelive.com/tag/energy-efficient/">energy efficient</a> if applied to every home. Your home’s specific insulation needs are the biggest factor, but the type, color and fabric of your treatment all play a part as well. But, with this information you’ll be able to make a more informed decision about which treatment is best for you, your wallet and the environment.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Cut your energy cost with tankless water heater. It save energy by eliminating standby losses associated with traditional, tank style heaters. Unlimited hot water and energy savings are the features most often touted by this industry. Nowadays, <a href="http://www.fastwaterheater.com/sanfrancisco.asp">water heater, San Francisco</a> have really stepped up their promotional campaigns and spent some big bucks building consumer awareness and interest in their products. Even with excellent insulation around the tank, energy is inevitably lost to the surrounding air over the course of time, even when you don&#8217;t use any hot water. While they do provide an unlimited supply they are not without their own problems. Tankless water heaters have been portrayed as providing huge energy savings and endless hot water. Also help global warming problem as well.</p>
<p><img src="http://i168.photobucket.com/albums/u170/nokhathai/Nice%20Home/4017569172_30f31e6b0e.jpg" border="0" alt="hot shower" width="447" height="300" /></p>
<p>When you turn on the faucet, tankless models feed in some cold water to gauge how big a temperature rise is needed. Sometimes it can be difficult to fill a bathtub with a tankless unit. With tankless heaters, higher the flow rate of the water the lower the temperature rise since the water spends less time in the heater. Therefore, they avoid the standby heat losses associated with storage water heaters. Please <a href="http://www.fastwaterheater.com/expect.asp" target="_blank">read more</a>.. <span id="more-24"></span> In an electric Tankless Water Heater an electric element heats the water. In a gas-fired Tankless Water Heater a gas burner heats the water. This heater type is efficiency because there is no energy used keeping a tank full of water hot. The only time any energy is used is when hot water is actually being used. As soon as the faucet is turned off the heater stops heating the water.
