I think this is amazing and I'd love to turn my sununu signs into solar air heaters for low income homes. Sununu loved to vote against liheap.

Wow- I'm not quite sure how to respond to this. I deal with TreeHugger and Co-Op America quite a bit, and they have always come highly recommened. I am not so sure this is a bad thing. I mean, yes it could have been worded a bit better, but I think they are genuinely trying to do something good. I think calling them shameless is a little bit harsh.

You make some good points, and I am looking forward to hearing more about the updates that are coming with the next version of Kyoto. There are an abundance of points that need improvement, for example in practice almost zero energy efficiency projects get approved. These projects are probably the best for overall reduction of GHG depending on the location, even better than building wind farms and such in certain areas. Over all though I believe these protocols are great first steps.

I think it is important to note that as far as things are working thus far, government backed policies are trading at a much higher value, comparing for instance the cost per ton in Kyoto vs. the Chicago Climate Exchange which is voluntary. So even if some of the proceeds are being used in other ways, the overall incentive for reduced emission is still higher.

I also believe that an important part of getting more pure energy efficiency projects in these types of programs is a universal acceptance a methodology for measurement and verification. I’ve worked closely with some government agencies in Quebec on this very subject encouraging the adoption of the international performance measurement and verification protocol (IPMVP.org).
