Certainly you will get a big smile from that person who will also say, "Wow. You are my best friend. I’m 38 already. Can you believe it" You, of course, say, "No. I really can’t. You’re jolting. You don’t look a day over 28. \ It’s impossible for you to Know a stxanger’s age.

An enormous amount of energy and resources went into the construction of those houses. And it would take an average of 65 years for the (3) carbon emissions from a new energy-efficient home to make up for the resources lost by destroying an old one. So in the broadest (4) , the greenest home is the one that has already been built.
