BusinessWeek's has a piece about how "going green" in one's residence, through the use of renewable energy, has a rising cachet.
Is green the new black? Over one million U.S. households now warm their homes in the winter with heat from the earth instead of using furnaces or fuel lines. Elton John, Richard Branson—the chief executive of Virgin Airlines—and Paul Allen, co-founder of Microsoft (MSFT), use ground-source energy in their homes too.Even George W. Bush has a geothermal system in his vacation home in Crawford, Tex. Designed by architect David Heymann, Prairie Chapel Ranch captures solar energy and has a cistern that gathers rainwater and wastewater, purifies it, and then uses it to irrigate the greenery around the Presidential vacation home.
The article goes on to discuss how renewables are changing the face of the US housing market as homeowners purchase solar arrays and wind turbines and socialy conscious homeonwners equip their homes with renewables.
