White is the New Black

I love when an environmental piece is the most popular article on a news website. All day today, NYT readers have been loving this piece about white roofs being the new, hot thing in energy savings. In fact, the article states that "studies show that white roofs reduce air-conditioning costs by 20 percent or more in hot, sunny weather." Awesome, now to see if I can convince my parents to buy into this trend. Since we don't have AC in SF, they'd probably benefit a bit more, you know, living in Atlanta and all.

PS puns intended.
