Green tech means $$$ too…

Tuesday, May 29th, 2007

I can’t understand why the greenies keep building a false dichotomy between looking out for the bottom line and being clean — they both mean green…
Saving energy means saving money — you couldn’t ask for a better selling point, especially as energy prices continue to climb. We don’t need alarmism to lower our carbon levels […]
