But when it comes to energy the focus is on actual usage…which in one article said 2007 GHG was up…primarily due to colder winters and warmer summers…So wonderful…the GHG people do not take into consideration weather when it comes to GHG emissions…if they did they would allow their following to perhaps see the affect of their conservation measures and efficiency measures…

What is more discouraging to work hard to decrease usage and GHG and see them increase? or…to present two sets of numbers…one actual showing the increase and the other weather normalized and show a decrease. Obviously there are more variables than the weather, but it too is a start.

No two buildings are alike…and the cost to reduce is an interesting data point…What is the investors “hurdle” rate to reduce the emissions…what are we shooting for?…not a lot of answers.

Comparing your company to another even in the same niche is an apples to oranges comparison no matter how you slice it…it’s a fruit salad.

The one thing, as Curly said on City Slickers, that is important…is awareness and a push to reduce. (Ok…he never defined the one thing) The rest is simply dressing. So I guess we have fruit salad with whipped cream.
