In the informative article tittled How Science and Life Interacted During the American Industrial Revolution compiled by Dany Blas incorporates how technology has changed the way we live.
Technology such as steal has allowed America reach the skies by building higher and stronger buildings using elevators to reach the top.
Technology has also changed the way people move around, it allowed us to innovate in many different transportation systems such as trains, subways,street cars, etc.
It has also changed the way we read and learn since it allowed us to make products such as newspapers faster and cheaper. We no longer had to wait months to revive information, we would now receive it instantly.
A passive house is the most energy efficient home yet. It differce from traditional homes since it is up to 5 to 20 percent more expansive to build and the design is modern. Yet the building procedure may be more, it would sabe you much more money in the use of energy in the long run.
Yet the passive house sounds to be the perfect home, many don't agree. They complain that this house is too expensive and that they do not equivalent to the designs of homes surrounding it. An alternative to a passive house would be what is called a pretty good house. This house is more energy efficient than a traditional house but not as much as the passive house.
Some residents living in expensive neighborhoods, are be against the idea of a passive house. I belive that their neglection comes from the fact that the passive home won't fit in with the homes surrounding it. Most expensive neighborhoods involve one type of architectural design and adding the design of a passive home would just destroy their idea of consistency.
