We've been living in this house since the end of 2011, now generating over twice the energy that we consume. There are still many challenges facing the world of house-dwellers, the building industry in Japan, and me and my family as we orbit the ideal home, hoping one day to touch down.

Advertisement: BUY LESS CRAP
First of all, don't buy it. If you have to buy it, buy the smallest you can, and chose carefully. When you've bought it, don't use it. If you do use it, use it as little as you can, and switch it off when you've finished. If it breaks, fix it. If you can't fix it, use it for something else. If you have to throw it away, do it carefully, and remember the experience the next time you think about buying more crap.
