When building a home, insulation is one of the major aspects that can cut future heating and cooling costs. Fiberglass insulation has been the primary choice, but not anymore.Alternatives to Fiberglass Insulation People have become much more sensitive to environmental and energy savings issues when building homes. Whereas such subjects were rarely discussed 20 years ago, they are now on the front burner for many of us. This transition has been so extensive that homebuilders now incorporate both issues in their projects and use their solutions as selling points. If these subjects have become part of the marketing, you know the transition to more environmental and energy consciousness has come full circle.
Have you ever wondered what happens to the newspapers you haul out to curb with the other recycling every week? Since I am mentioning it in this article, it is probably obvious the newspapers are being turned into insulation products. This relatively new insulation product is quickly overtaking fiberglass insulation in new home building projects, remodels and additions. Known as fiber insulation, it is more environmentally friendly than fiberglass, less expensive and just as good at sealing homes. Fiber insulation is typically made up of recycled newspapers. Yes, those newspapers you haul out to the curb each week with the trash. Small amounts of ground up cardboard can also be included in some products. The material is shredded and then treated with acrylic binders to make the material hold together. To prevent fires, it is treated with various forms of fire retardant materials.
Fiber insulation almost always comes in a loose fill form. The loose fill is typically blown into cavities requiring insulation instead of being stapled up as seen with traditional fiberglass rolls. The material usually goes in dry, but there are wet versions that are sprayed on much like more traditional spray on insulation products.
As you may know, recycling newspaper is something everyone does these days. Just take a look down the street on garbage day.

There are many things in life that we take for granted. When is the last time you were truly thankful for air, water or even a warm meal? For many people, our lives are so full of blessing that we forget about all of the simple things that make our lives to much easier and better. I recently thought about just how different our lives would be without one simple thing: chairs.
Can you imagine life without any chairs? I ertainly cannot. Think about all the places you rely on chairs to make your life comfortable and easy. Remember, for example, the many years you spent in school. Other than perhaps story time in kindergarden, your time in school was spent sitting in chairs to learn. Our lives would be very different if we had to make it through math, science and english classes sitting on the floor. Or think about the lunch room. Can you imagine eating lunch on the floor with all your friends each day?
When I thought about the blessing that chairs are to our lives, I couldn’t help but think about restaurants. In some countries in the world it is common to sit on the floor to eat. Can you imagine going out for a fancy dinner with your family or friends and having to sit in your nice suit or dress on the floor? Of course not. Think of what would happen if you went to attend a formal party or wedding reception and discovered that you would be seated on the floor, without chairs, for the entire evening. I bet your time at the party would not last as long as you were expecting.
If you love going to the movies as much as I do then you appreciate the comfort of the theature chairs that you sit in each time you enjoy a new film. Picture yourself going to the movie theature for the next great film and having to sit in a mass of strangers on the floor in front of the screen. Sound strange? I agree. Next time you head into a theature and sit in the chairs smile and be thankful.
Probably the place that I take having great chairs for granted in is my home. There is nothing better than coming home and enjoying the newspaper in your favorite rocking chair or reading a book in a recliner. Can you imagine your home without chairs? Mine would be quite empty and very uncomfortable.Once you start thinking about all of the places that you enjoy sitting on chairs it isn’t hard to imagine how different our lives would be without them. So sit down in one of your favorite chairs, enjoy it, and be very thankful you have it today.
