Green technology is the wave of the future, not just in Silicon Valley, but across the globe as well and we can all play a part in improving the environment by utilizing alternative means for generating electricity.  As each individual makes an investment into global preservation by making the decision to include solar panels on their investment properties, or any alternative energy method, they have enforced the greater good principle which we should all consider during our time here on earth.  This especially includes those of us who are lucky enough to own real property improved with structures.  Non-owner occupied property owners are increasingly considering solar energy into their property management plans and for good reason.
