Summary
In this podcast, Paul and Jocelyn reflect on a dinner they had with some people that had a full
energy audit on their house. The interesting thing? The auditors never mentioned lifestyle changes, but put their focus on those pesky fluorescent
light bulbs instead. They go on to discuss the toxicity of these bulbs, and
Paul’s article on heating himself, rather than the room he was in.
