Designed by Engineers

 One ounce has the surface area of 10 football fields  It is the lightest existing solid material  It is an excellent thermal insulator because it is mostly trapped air  Essentially made of sand

Windows cut the glare when the sun is too intense Can reduce 98% of solar radiation from entering home through windows!

 Can be applied anywhere in attic space of house  Keeps heat out in summer, warmth in during winter  Usually made of aluminum

 Transform the sun’s energy into useable electricity to power your home!  Receive rebates from the government for installing them!

Wouldn’t it be nice to turn these jeans into this: Then use it to insulate, like this!
