- judge2020 4y agoIsn't there consensus that the industrial sector's carbon footprint is multitudes greater than residential so even a net-0 residential would barely put a dent in reducing carbon impact?
- bombcar 4y agoResidential energy use accounts for roughly 20% of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the United States. https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.1922205117 https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.1922205117 So it could do something, but it's not everything.
