Everyone says that we must use less energy! But how? That is the
big question. In this article, you can read about the house of the
future, which uses hardly any energy at all...
Most houses use energy - lots of it. We use energy for heating,
[5] lighting, for running our household appliances - TV's, washing
machines, fridges, and so on. In winter time, most houses use
dozens of kilowatts of electricity every day, or the equivalent in
gas.
The house in the photo, on the other hand, uses virtually nothing:
[10] most of the energy that it uses comes straight from the sun, the
wind or the ground. This is an experimental house at the University
of Nottingham, and it could be the kind of house that most people
are living in fifty years from now.
During the daytime, it is rarely necessary to turn on an electric
[15] light, even in rooms without windows. Sunlight, or daylight, is
"piped" through the house, into each room, through special highreflection
aluminium tubes. You can see how well they reflect light,
by looking at the reflections of the faces in the picture!

UFG 2012/1“The secret of the Great Stories is that they have no secrets. The Great Stories are the ones you have heard and want to hear again. The ones you can enter anywhere and inhabit comfortably. They don’t deceive you with thrills and trick endings. They don’t surprise you with the unforeseen. They are as familiar as the house you live in. Or the smell of your lover’s skin. You know how they end, yet you listen as though you don’t. In the way that although you know that one day you will die, you live as though you won’t. In the Great Stories you know who lives, who dies, who finds love, who doesn’t. And yet you want to know again. THAT is their mystery and magic.”
