Do you know that green house gas is one of the main reasons for buildings to be built in Bend? One of the most effective ways to reduce the amount of green house gas is to encourage electricity. Especially as electricity supply is increasing. I am Bend City Councilor Steve Platton. Recently, Bend City Council has approved Jalvayu Production Shrug, which will help us to move towards a cleaner, more clean Jalvayu according to Bend. I would like to share a few key points about this Shrug, which also includes what it is used for and what it is not. First of all, let's talk about Jalvayu Production Shrug and those things on which it is not used. Jalvayu Production Shrug is not used on existing houses, which include things like changing the equipment. This Shrug is also not used on artificial construction. Now, I would like to tell you what is the use of Jalvayu Pradushan Shulk. This Shulk is used for the construction of new houses. Each new gas application, such as bhatty or stoke, will help support the initiatives of Rajaswami Vidyadikarn, which was obtained from Jalvayu Pradushan Shulk. Jalvayu Pradushan Shulk will be implemented on 1st April, 2027. You can get more information on bendoregon.google.com.
