Emission Reduction Coupled with Economic Growth

seenfeen

What ways are there that can both reduce how much emissions we let out while stimulating our economic growth within the country? It can be put into the use of benefitting homes, like the case of Rome where they send their waste to an Austrian company which then recycles it to use in electric systems that power homes,  to actually turning green energy into profit. The idea is that green energy can be monopolized for both the earth, and for making more money to further put into development more research for these things within government and private environmental projects. What are some suggestions that you have?

I agree! I think people should really be careful on how they use their energy. One good way to do this is to have a usage report from your utility company that helps you keep track of the things you do, how much you spend, and where you are using too much. A lot of people don't know how much of something they use. Solar panels are good if you want to cut down your own bill and possibly make money. If you don't use all of the power that the solar panels make, you can sell it to the utility company.
