Comment from the contributor:

From NRDC -- Business curious about going green?  NRDC makes it easy.  Learn about renewable energy credits in your area, and if renewables are the right choice for you.

“ The cheapest, cleanest energy is the energy you don’t use. Before purchasing renewable energy, consider improving the energy efficiency of your facilities. With the money you save, you can consider investing in renewable energy and still reduce your overall energy bill. ”
