An excellent start.

I wonder what tempertures public buildings are kept at these days . . . Seems to me that the one good place to adjust thermostats for energy conservation would be in public buildings. Nevertheless, every bit of fossil fuel saved, is a bit of carbon dioxide that doesn't go into the air. The more we save, the better off your kids will be.
