Green Ideas

THIS IDEA IS A SIMPLE ONE AND WOULD BENEFIT IN MANY DIFFERENT WAYS. WHY CANTCAN'T THE GOVERMENT BRING IN A NEW LAS TO SAY THAT EVERY NEW HOME HAS TO BE FITTED WITH A SOLAR PANEL. THIS WOULD NOT ONLY REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF CARBON EMITIONS USED BYTHE WORLD BUT IT WOULD ALSO SAVE MANY FAMILYS ALOT MONEY IN THE LONG TERM. IF YOU THINK ABOUT IT THE AVERAGE HOUSE PRICE IN THE UK IS APPROX £149.000 wITH ADDING A SOLAR PANAL WHEN PROPERTY WAS BUILD THE PROPERTY VALUE WOULD ONLY INCRESE BY ABOUT £3500 WHICH I THINK IS A SMALL PRICE TO PAY.

As of today, The U.S Congress is frantically working on a $789 billion economic stimulus bill - of that, $4.5 billion is proposed to make federal buildings more energy efficient.  ($100 billion is slated for all energy & transportation programs).
