Welcome to greenHOUSE, the 21 day Home Energy Blitz with Laura Trotta
I get it.
You’re well aware that climate change is the greatest threat to life as we know it. Your ‘green guilt’ has been niggling at you for ages telling you that you should do something. Anything.
And you would! If only you knew where to start.
There’s so much conflicting advice out there on what you can do to save the planet. You just want to cut through the crap and have someone with the creds to tell you what to do. Lay it all out for you even.
You’ll also very aware of your increasing power bills and the rising cost of living. It’s getting harder to pay your utility bills and your paycheck can only stretch so far.
What if there was a way to help combat climate change and save you dollars along the way? Is that too much to ask?
Let me tell you that helping the environment and improving your household budget go hand in hand.
Around 15 years ago, while working full time as an environmental engineer, I wanted to do more in my own household to make it the eco home I desired. I was searching for a way to reduce my household’s energy consumption but there really wasn’t much information out there at the time to help me do so.
Introducing greenHOUSE, the 21 Day Home Energy Blitz!
My 5 Step System To Reducing Your Energy Bills & Footprint.
It’s time to take your desire to do something about climate change seriously, reduce your environmental footprint and reap the savings on your energy bills, without compromising your lifestyle.
So here’s what I did…..
I trained to become a Home Energy Auditor and volunteered in my local community, under the award-winning Outback Smart Initiative.
I was invited into people’s homes to identify ways to reduce their electricity, gas and water use. Some families were able to reduce their consumption considerably and even those who were initially sceptical were thrilled when I outlined actions they could take to reduce their energy consumption, and ultimately bills.
Despite not thinking we had much to change in our small, rented home, we managed to shave 20% off our energy bills just by making small tweaks to how we lived. In the process we gained more confidence knowing we were walking the talk on climate change, the greatest environmental challenge of our generation.
Now, years later, I’ve shifted my focus to help even more households slash their energy emissions.
Enter YOU!
Why do I need a Home Energy Blitz?
Say ‘goodbye’ to skyrocketing energy bills that leave you sweating at the letterbox! I’m bringing my knowledge as an Environmental Engineer together with the practical knowledge of running grass roots eco-initiatives and businesses to give you an actionable and fun way to reduce your energy consumption step-by-step, with minimal effort and little disruption.
I’ve done the hard work for you and made the overwhelming easy. You’ll have simple tools that allow you to make changes so you can sleep soundly at night knowing your children’s future is improved by the lasting actions this program will bring about.

I know SO much more now about energy use in our home – I thought I had a reasonable idea before but greenHOUSE really gave me the tools to do this. A good example is monitoring our electricity and gas meter boxes which I now plan to do weekly going forwards – previously I had no idea what the readings on the meters meant and so had no way of telling if our consumption was above or below our usual average. During the three week course, our average energy use decreased by about 30-40%. I haven’t been tracking it since then (will start reading meters every Monday and keeping a weekly record) but I imagine our usage will be much lower going forward. Amanda Hudson
greenHOUSE is a great starter course for those keen to learn more about environmental issues and the small changes that can be made in the home to make a difference worldwide. Christie White
This course gives you the power to be in charge of your energy usage and the cost of living. If you’re unsure whether to do greenHOUSE, just do it. You’ll change some habits and lower your cost of living. Amanda Nelson
greenHOUSE is really worthwhile and such great value. I learnt so much about how energy is used and how to be more aware of my energy use. I was surprised to find out how much energy my oven uses and also just how important insulation is in reducing heating costs. I can’t wait to go through the material again so I can solidify my learning. Alison Andrews
This course gives you a great insight into energy usage in the home and easy ways to reduce your energy costs. I enjoyed learning how to help reduce our household costs and help the environment too! Catherine Laun
