In a buildings life cycle (from construction to demolition); the greatest ecological impact is the amount of fuel needed to heat and cool the home. Insulating Concrete Homes are a preferred environmental choice because of significant savings in natural resources needed to maintain a comfortable temperature. Building with Eco Block (ICFs) reduces by up to 40% the consumption of green house gas emissions.
