I'm not the rah-rah type when it comes to lowering global temperatures, carbon footprints, saving the planet, etc. The planet got along fine before I arrived and I suspect that it will get along just fine after I leave. But the money-saving aspect does interest me. Not only that but I suspect it adds to the resale value of the house as well.
You are absolutely correct. The planet will get along just fine after you leave. The question is whether humans will survive. Humans have been on the planet for VERY small fraction of the planet's history.
