It's The Architecture Stupid

 

Who really holds the key to the global thermostat? The answer might surprise you.  How do we dramatically cut down on greenhouse gas emissions, lessen our dependence on fossil fuels and become more energy-efficient without arguably wrecking the U.S. economy?   So far, no one’s come up with a viable answer, largely because we keep looking at global warming from the same angle.
