In today’s edition of The Heartland Daily Podcast, Todd Myers, director of the environment program at the Washington Policy Center in Washington State, joins host H. Sterling Burnett to talk about his new paper showing the failure of “green schools” to be energy-efficient.
Myers discusses his new paper showing green schools and upgrades in North Carolina cost more to build and end up costing more for energy because they use more energy than promised. Myers’ research in school districts in Nevada, Texas, Washington State, Colorado and now North Carolina show the energy savings promised from building green is all hype and no substance.
