Have you heard about the  100 million a year social marketing campaign being launched by the Alliance for Climate Protection.  ?  Based on the methods outlined and taught by Douglas McKensie-Mohr whose ideas have potential relevance for those of us who enjoy the benefits  at Active Rain, it's worth a peek.

Check out  information on Page One of the March 24th issue of USA Today.
It's entitled Green Bandwagon Is Getting a Big Push

As a REALTOR®  one feature whose benefits you could point out  for anyone with interest in eco-friendly commercial real estate is the value of motion sensors. Since lighting accounts for about 29% of electrical energy use,occupancy and motion  sensors can cut  lighting use by about a third to almost half. Looks as if there may be some "new doors" about to open as we follow this trend toward sustainable innovation.

janeAnne - it's not just commercial real estate that can benefit - motion detector lights around the exterior of homes is also a great use of resources - or should I say great economy of resources.

They have those sensors at our Realtors Assn building - in the bathrooms.  Great idea.
