People should take it seriously under consideration when applying for jobs, though. Even ignoring that commuting often adds a great deal of stress, and stress is linked to numerous health problems, it simply makes more sense. I used to work in Mountain View, which is a 30 minute drive from my home, but I now work downtown, which not only means I'm about 2 miles away, but it also means I can take the lightrail. These considerations mean I can sleep in longer, I avoid traffic, and I pollute very little.

Not being a refrigerator nor a water heater, I'm not sure where you're getting this.

Not only have I lived in a basement, but I liked it. Not only did I like it, but I'm actually seriously looking into earth sheltering as an option.

MORE! I WANT MORE! MUHAHAHA!! But seriously, the more solar panels are produced, the cheaper they will be. That's the ultimate goal: cheap solar panels for everyone.
