You have to go to mind set, motivation, and mentality to truly judge the merits of these issues. There are things the discussion is overlooking.
Here is a simple example: I live in Austin, TX., one of the Crown Jewels in the Crown of the Green Environmental Movement.
They just passed an ordinance here requiring anyone owning a house/home over 10 years old, requiring that they must have an energy efficiency audit before they can sell their property. What happened to my home being my Castle? What happened to my rights to privacy and my rights against illegal/unwarranted search and seizure? I don't want any so called quasi-governmental official giving my domicile what amounts to a prostate exam and paying them for the honor. Providing them with 12 months energy bills isn't sufficient?
These elected officials that feel it necessary to rescind my privacy rights in the name of energy efficiency...in the name of minimizing environmental degradation by human activity are the same ones that are GUNG-HO about paving over the Barton Springs Aquifer Recharge Zone, effectively destroying the one true environmentally sensitive Crown Jewel to Central Texas, thereby placing several endangered species' future in peril.
Why would these environmental watchdogs advocate something so damaging and counter productive to the local environment? Why? Because they are all property developers, or they are bought and paid for by developers. For the same reason their cronies are going to perform their energy audits. Money!
It's just a shake-down. A shake-down wrapped in a good-guy benevolent wrapper. That's all. Who's the real snake-oil salesman? I ask you.
