Low fuel bills and affordable mortgages save families hundreds of dollars a year, preserving hard-earned cash for other necessities such as food, clothing and education. In 1997, the Valadez family moved into an energy-efficient home built by HFH of Metro Denver."The typical winter utility bill in their new home ranges from $47 to $52 per month, compared to $150 to $200 per month in their old apartment," says Pritchard. "Their summer utility bills now range from haldexbarneshydraulicpumps $20 to $27 per month, down from $65 to $75 per month in their apartment." In the thicket of the Carolina Lowlands, the whirring buzz and grind of a lone chip mill disturbs the summer symphony of rustling branches, crickets and the guttural call of wild turkeys. As the highly-automated leviathan roars with efficiency, stripping bark and grinding trees into usable flakes for the paper and pulp industries, hunters and environmentalists do a little roaring of their own. Concerned the voracious chippers will devastate Southern forests, their interest groups are calling for heightened regulations and a moratorium on new mills until their impacts have been studied.
