We encourage new development/building both public and private to use appropriate alternative energy (less costly than retrofitting) - decrease the need for new oil drilling, new coal, new nuclear plants, markedly decrease pollution and CO2, etc. Many in the US still view all alternative energy as "whacky, new-age, hippie" type of stuff. The technology is advancing by leaps and bounds, in other countries.
