Having some post-Festivus celebration, I see? But in all seriousness, you are right. A lot of businesses don’t conserve as much as they should, and they can conserve about as much as you do on a regular basis. Problem with it is, while it would save them lots of money in the long run to use auto dimming lights and lower temperature setpoints when not occupied, those businesses put that low on the totem pole because it can be involved and not save them too much right away. So unless the government creates some program to encourage businesses to be reimbursed for going green, they won’t do it until they have nothing else better to do to save money
