Although weatherstripping is one alternative, why not find an insulation foam that has a negative carbon footprint? It will increase the R-factor and last longer.
If you really want to save big $ on heating. Look into new types of information and reflective foil. In order to keep warm inside you must keep the cold outside. = Thermal barriers from top to bottom. = Rigid foam boards, spray foam, and reflective alluminum foil.(to my knoledge ate this time) good luck all.
Nice attempt but not Practical. I've coverd my many windows in plastic shrink wrap for 3 years now. I don't want to ever do it again. It's time consuming and u can't open your windows when it gets warmer out. = Unpractical solution. Not to mention Radiant heat that cost u $ to make still goes out the window. Programable termastat? Y, have those too. Saves $ yes but takes forever to heat the house from cold if your main source of heat is electric.
