    They don’t. Even Austin which has a lot of progressive minds wouldn’t be the reason this is happening… it’s cheaper to turn the lights out and commercial leases are bombing. This is a nice byproduct to be sure … but reality is this is a financial move not a greener earth move.

      Yeah but look at all this sweet sweet PR juice they are squeezing out of “we shut the lights off in the building because nobody’s there so it saves us money”
