Abstract

The author opines regarding carbon dioxide mitigation that can be achieved via home renovation, while debunking certain literature on the cost effectiveness of such efforts. Great Britain's New Green Deal is discussed and conflicting estimates in home renovation costs mentioned by the government and Retrofit for the Future director Neil Morgan are noted. The author discusses methods for assessing thermal insulation and research needs regarding moisture and heat transfer in homes.
