They were never bored!”

These houses are both “green” and “smart”. There is glass outside the houses. Heat is held under the glass and is then used as energy for each house. In the bathroom, your medicine cupboard is connected to your doctor’s computer. In the kitchen, your smart fridge tells the supermarket’s computer when you need more food.
Mr Yu: “When we were living in our old house,
we were using more energy. I would certainly
recommend Forever Green Houses to my friends.
They will satisfy everyone.”

Mr Hu: “While I was driving my old car,
I was polluting the city. Now, with the
