ENERGY EFFICIENCY SHOULD BE CONSIDERED FIRST

 

One area of energy savings that is missed is the area of "Efficiency".  The energy saved by using efficiency was called by Amory Lovins, "negawatts' and this area advocates the use of better, more efficient appliances, vehicles and generation that can equal or exceed our future energy needs. 

Those technologies are here today and improving - just look at the compact fluorescent lightbulb - the CFL. 

Amory and Hunter Lovins have a wonderful organization, the Rocky Mountain Institute, dedicated to this ideal. 

I wholeheartedly recommend that you begin your energy adventure there. Energy efficiency dollars are well spent dollars.
