The Department of Environment and Urban Quality through the Local Agency for Energy and Climate Change Murcia (ALEM) and in collaboration with Aguas de Murcia, Murcia teach families to change their consumption habits to make more sustainable use of resources and reduce spending on household economy.
The first phase is dedicated to promoting self-management of domestic water consumption and electricity by introducing and saving behaviors.
The aim is to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases and decrease between 6 and 10% of domestic water consumption and energy.
In the second phase, the challenge will be to change certain habits to make the purchase.
Thus, the aim is to replace at least five basic food products from other agricultural and livestock production, removed from the cart at least two products harmful to the environment and eliminate two redundant products.
It also seeks to incorporate new criteria in selecting the items in the cart, such as prioritizing local products, avoid products sobreempaquetados ...
Participants will be convened quarterly to exchange information on key issues and practices, they offer personalized service, telephone or email with the doubts that arise and materials will be provided with information and practical advice.
Thus, in the first phase will provide a saving kit that includes items such as a low energy lamp, faucet aerator, a showerhead and a low-power digital thermometer.
The intention with this kit is that it opens the door to a change in attitudes about saving, efficiency and rational use of resources.
For their part, families must complete an initial questionnaire on water, energy, and mobility, to complete a final questionnaire on the same subjects (six months of starting) and provide data on household consumption.
For those who get to turn your home into a Green Home will be given a plaque.
To join this pilot project, you just have to call 968 200293, complete a questionnaire and have the electricity and water bills for the past six months, and to prepare a detailed report to highlight those aspects that the user is consuming too much energy and water.
During this first phase will reach a hundred families from the town as a pilot program, then enter the hamlets families.
Looking to the participants, the Green Homes Program is conceived as an opportunity but also as a compromise.
