More Profit with Less Carbon
Anory B. Lovins
Lovins believes that climate protection would reduce the costs of fossil fuel. He gives examples of five major firms that are currently energy efficient and have saved $2 billion since the 1990s just on reducing carbon emission by more than 60 percent. Not only corporate companies are starting to reduce their carbon emission, but common house hold items such as flourescent lamps are now made to last longer and use less enegry then it did 20 years ago. Vehicles are made lighter so they do not use as much gas.
Lovins also mentions renewable energy as an alternative to coal powered plants. Wind and solar power are already used in Europe. Lovins believes that global nuclear generating capacity is expected to decline and that if carbon use is reduced, money can be saved, and profit can be made.
