Question: Web Exercise Home heating accounts for approximately one-third of energy consumption in a typical U.S. household. Despite soaring prices of oil, coal, and natural gas, one can make his/her winter heating bill noninflationary by installing an ultraconvenient corn burning stove that costs in the neighborhood of $2,400. That's right-a small radiant heating stove that burns corn and adds practically nothing to global warming or air pollution can be obtained through www.magnumfireplace.com. Its estimated annual savings per household in fuel is $300 in a regular U.S. farming community. Conduct research on this means of home heating by accessing the above Web site. Do the annual savings you determine in your locale for a 2,000-square foot ranch style house more than offset the cost of installing and maintaining a corn-burning stove? What other factors besides dollars might influence your decision to use corn for your home heating requirements? Be specific with your suggestions.
