Ecovation/ Heritage Open Days

Thursday 10 September 2009 - Sunday 13 September 2009 in Oxfordshire

You are invited to yet another Ecovation Open Days event in Oxfordshire. This time it will run as part of the Heritage Open Day event 2009, which celebrates England's fantastic architecture and culture by offering free access to properties that are usually closed to the public or normally charge for admission. We think that in times of Climate Change eco-renovated and eco-built houses ought to play a major role in this event.

Yellow House CD

What is the Yellow House CD?

The Yellow House CD tells the story of how COIN's George Marshall and his wife Annie turned their 1930s ex-council house into an environmental dream home.

"We wanted to reduce our energy consumption by two thirds and renovate our home using sustainable materials, but without losing comfort or style".
 
The CD includes a full photo gallery, four video tours of the main features of the house, two videos about climate change, seven new articles on eco-renovation and low carbon lifestyles. 

Ecovation

If the Government's expressed target of cutting national greenhouse gas emissions by 60% by 2050 is to be achieved, the eco-renovation of owner-occupied housing will be a vital focus for strategic thinking and concerted action.
  

Ecovation is a project run by COIN in partnership with Climate-X which aims to support home-owners to eco-renovate their homes.  The programme runs a range of activities from the ecovation website which provides comprehensive information and advice to  open day events in which home-owners open their homes to the public.
