Crappy GHG Homes, Water-efficient Golf, Green Retail Centers + Wells Fargo's $1B in Green Lending (WIR)

1. 88% of new homes are crappy, greenhouse gas spewing energy hogs - meaning they don't meet the comparatively weak Energy Star standards. 
2. Las Vegas golf courses are using better water-efficient landscaping to save over 1 billion gallons of water per year. 
3. Regency Centers is teaming up with the USGBC to implement a pilot program aimed at developing green shopping centers across the country (this is badly needed). 
4. Wells Fargo passes the $1 Billion mark in financing for LEED certified buildings with loans ranging from $10 to $225 million per project.
