Green Project: Warm up a room with an Insulating Wall Hanging
(via www.jasonmorrison.net)
It’s basically a frame with some stylish fabric stretched over like the canvas in an oil painting. It’s backed with mylar which means it acts as a radiant heat barrier, keeping you toasty.

Increasing energy efficiency in attics using blown-in insulation
(via jobsite.buildiq.com)
The Department of Energy estimates that up to 45% of a home's energy loss can occur through the attic if the insulation is missing or isn't installed correctly. When installed properly, loose-fill insulation creates an energy-efficient home, lowers utility bills, and decreases fossil fuel burning and carbon dioxide emissions.
