Eco friendly family house
J. M. Pescado:
I maintain that the most ecologically friendly method of heating your house is with computers. Since you needed a computer anyway, the heat is free and costs nothing. It is certainly better than any form of electrical heater, which just wastes electricity and produces heat without producing any computing. In fact, just about ANY electrical appliance is better at producing heating than a heater. At least some actual WORK is being done before the endproduct emerges as heat.
And I suppose if you wanted to power a waterslide in an ecologically friendly manner, you'd use used showerwater. That way it already has the required soap that you apparently need.

In fact you could have a showerslide from the top to the bottom of the house. Hop out of bed and showerslide down to the wardrobe.
The most energy efficient house would of course be built underground, but then some of us who own bunkers have already thought of that.

Ah, yes, here they are referred to double paned or double hung windows, some even offer TRIPLE paned blah blah blah. My mistake, wasn't aware they were called a different thing elsewhere. Still doesn't explain your water slide fail. But the back peddling is funny.
"Hurrrrr Nice house, but snarky comment hurrrrr"
"Actually..."
"Hurrrrr Not all the time, because of local topgraphy and climate and other real world things huuuuuuurrrrr"
"Here are some real world facts"
"Huuuuurrrrrrrr it's an imaginary house, why are you bringing up real world stuff? hurrrrrr"
It appears you aren't aware of many things. The water slide is the thing on the lawn, with water, that Sims slide on. Though I'm sure enough people have informed you already.
Interesting that even with all these real world facts, there is still no one here that has proven my comment wrong. In fact, even witch has agreed (below) with my points of regional differences and types of power generations, as well as that water slide you failed to see.
Keep trying.

Wood is a renewable resource, coal and oil are not. I agree it depends somewhat on the power generating alternatives as to whether the pollution from wood burning fires is acceptable. Some of our cities in NZ, Christchurch in particular, have had to change building codes for chimneys and fireplaces in order to cut down the pollution. The city is built on a very flat plain with little wind.
Just to reiterate and clarify. It is a nice Generations equipped house. It simply didn't jump out and say eco-friendly to me. While this maybe down to regional based opinion, and lifestyle, it's still an opinion. No amount of trivial debate can change that.

Actually, it's a terrible Generations-equipped house. ACCEPT NO KEWIAN-BASED SUBSTITUTES!

I agree that Generations has landed us with a heap of nice-looking Kewian-based rubbish.
