    Answer: Energy consumption and sustainability is important so that it remain available for future generation.

    Explanation:

    1. The home furnaces are likely to require fuel like coal, which will directly emit carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide gases. These should be replaced with the electrical furnaces. The old or more power consuming air conditioners should be replaced with new ones.

    2. The water heaters should be tankless so their capacity to heat more water could be possible. The water heaters should be electricity saving.

    3. Washer and dryers should be water savy and electricity savy. A front-loading washing machine is useful energy saver.

    4. The LED lights are more electricity saving than conventional bulbs. Halogen lights are also electricity saving.
