bcast08302014 Ukraine and U.S energy conservation and safety.

Last year, the midwest of the United States during the winter of 2013-2014 faced that frigid polar vortex sending the price of Propane/Natural Gas and Electricity through the stratosphere.

In the Ukraine, Gazprom is not shipping Natural gas to Ukraine as Ukraine was unable to pay their outstanding gas bill to Gazprom.

Ukrainians were told to take drastic measures to save their limited supplies of Natural Gas for the winter. Including:
1. Take cold showers
2. Invest in Wood and coal fired heating systems and stoves
3. Install Electric water heaters and Electric boilers
4. Insulate, insulate and INSULATE!!!

Perhaps, being the Eastern U.S will be expecting to have a cold time this winter; We should consider the same.

This video talks about this and the safe way to use these resources.
