Great idea --- a revolving loan fund to help folks made the capital investments in projects that quickly pay back, such as energy efficiency. Revolving loans have been very successful at institutions such as universities, with excellent rates of return compared to alternative investments.

Jane Byrd says (with homage to Tracy Nelson): Mother Earth Is Waiting For Us: There's a Debt We Have to Pay
