Green buildings are a solution which does not even seem to be on the radar nationally. Buildings use a huge amount of energy, yet there seems to be no national standards on them. General standards that are then up to the state to adopt. Homes in the US use 20% of all energy. Think what would happen with a 30% increase in efficiency? Cars and SUV's use 40% of the oil that's used daily in the U.S. Most of the rest is used in buildings somehow.
