Energy efficiency is
the best investment
an individual can
make to address the
energy and
environmental issues
facing California,
the U.S., even the
world, today. While
we promote renewable
energy and pursue
other sustainable
practices within the
City, the simple
application of energy efficiency,
both in appliance
purchases and in our
day-to-day behavior,
yields the best
returns on all our
time and money
invested.
