There are many motivations to 'go green'.
Threat. Persuasion. Inspiration, Bribe. Guilt.
Readers of this blog I prefer 'inspiration'. And if that can be tangible in £ terms, then why not?
But often simple self-interest can be the motivator. If it takes nothing but saves a lot, then it's hard to see a down side.
We don't have a big garden area but it's enough to seek night-time illumination on call.
Hence there are several spots around. All LED. All self-contained solar.
Now I can appreciate the solar is not really an option on many public facilities (though often vast areas do suggest opportunity), but for the life of me, and my rate bill, I can't see why the investment cannot be made in a simple timer/ambient light meter combo to spare unnecessary waste (the irony of the sign on the skip next to the floodlight being 'Green waste' is not lost) at 10.15am on a bright day.
Now, who on earth does one contact to share this notion with? On the case.

I believe in freedom of speech. But I also don't like bullies on blogs, even verbal ones, as they can drive away those with something valid to say... or offer.
Subjective is fine, but well argued and substantiated is even better. Calm and polite tops. Anything that crosses my personal line will not go up. There may be reasons given, but not guaranteed.
I'm not too keen on 'Anon' as a handle (and the content usually explains why), so if that's what you opt for it may not make it. Sorry.
