"WE'RE used to taking command of our personal climate in planes and cars by using simple controls. Why not in buildings too? A study of the effect of installing individual air-conditioning vents at office desks, and putting controls at each worker's fingertips, suggests it can cut a building's energy use in half. The approach costs more to install than a conventional system, and has never taken off commercially. But engineer Stefano Schiavon at the University of California, Berkeley, and colleagues say their research shows the idea is worth revisiting, as companies and countries seek to cut emissions." - Steven Perez from Bookmarklet
