My family’s #chevysilverado is able to use E85 gasoline which is made mostly of 🌽! When it comes out of the exhaust it is better for the enviro than regular gas! Too bad my dad doesn’t put it in that often! @franklinlorax#apesenergy
My house uses LED light bulbs rather than CFL bulbs or incandescent bulbs. LED’s have a lower wattage/higher efficiency helping save energy and money! #apesenergy@franklinlorax
Setting aside national forests and preserving the biodiversity of plants and trees is incredibly important to keeping the earth healthy! Let's push to do more of this! #apesland@franklinlorax
hard at work turning this forest into a subdivision! Jackie is working on our sub. rules, Meghan is our ECO- Designer, AJ is working on property layout, Cass on the building requirements and Amanda on community info. Highland Hills is the place to be #APESland@franklinlorax
Many houses in my neighborhood have several acres of land. This low density housing is a result of urban sprawl and negatively impacts the environment. #apesland@franklinlorax
