'Green' is what sells nowdays. I'm looking into certain aspects of the business. We all have to smarten up or go under and I'm not wealthy enough to retire.

There are/will be a lot of advantages in going 'green'.

I think its a bit ridiculous and contradictory, I believe in screwing the world and enjoying my time on it...as far as destroying it for my future children, if they listened to me then they will be sharp enough to figure something out.

But in the meantime its a great sales pitch for home automation systems and I'm milking it for all its worth!

I don't push it but I am willing to go there if need be and it is good to have some product knowledge about green . I would hate to lose a good job because I was not doing mine .

I wouldn't say concern for the environment drops during downturns. I think we are just a bit more frugal with our money, you have to be. On the flip side going green doesn't have to be $$$. McCarthy is an excellent option http://www.mccarthy.com/about/green/
