Earlier this year the Environmental Protection Agency issued an Advanced Notice of Proposed Rulemaking that derives authority from the Clean Air Act to implement economy wide regulation of greenhouse gasses. If implemented, the EPA’s plan will touch every aspect of your life. Not even your places of worship will be safe from government bureaucrats.

We all breath out carbon monoxide and all green plants use our carbon monoxide to create more oxygen for us to breathe. God made us and the trees and green polants to work together. We do not need an EPA to give us common sense to live by and produce our food supply, automobiles and medicines, and homes, and televisions and sound systems, or radio's or restaurants or gyms or anything else in our lives. All the EPA know's how to do is collect money for our crooked government and make more for them to blow on their pork barrell spending and this helps make them (Governmental people) filthy rich) on our tax dollars. Get rid of all big spenders in our government now. Wall Street has a broken back because S-3134 took the comodities away from them and it took them two months to go down with out commodities Futures and Speculations sales making big bucks for oil compony investors. Good ridense for their demise. So now our government is investing in every stock in our system. Ridiculous. If my small business went down and I could not pay my bills, I would have filed Chapted 11 and reorganized. Like any other responsible business. Big Government is eating our breakfast, lunch & dinner and leaving us with nothing but IOU's which I don't trust any more than my trust in all Congress and Senate positions.

These new regulations, coupled with incentives for such measures, would do wonders for proliferation of these fuelless energy technologies. There are many things that can be done with buildings' as well to improve their energy efficiency - cool roofing, thicker wall cavities for more insulation... I have been to classes on passive survivability in which it has been mentioned that northern European buildings literally "go fat" on insulation: R-30 in walls, R-50 in ceilings. I've seen descriptions of fiber-optics used to route light from rooftop mirror dishes deep into buildings where the sun usually can't go. Obviously some energy has to be used in cooking and medical care - though in cooking, a modified skylight system could even be used to power a solar oven for instance, and if any kind of building needs a lot of passive survivability a hospital would be it. There are many innovations which deserve a lot closer look by these industries.
