Seems interesting that Mr. Wheeler would comment on the amount of energy consumed by Americans versus other nations after choosing a neighborhood with a 3000 square foot minimum home size. Not to mention its remote location forcing Mr. Wheeler and is family to drive their SUV off the mtn. for work, play and groceries. Bluff Creek at Fox Run, a development with developer approved landscaping and color schemes. What a joke! It's Architect's like Mr. Wheeler, construction company's like Collier Const. and national organizations like the USGBC that are killing any real hope of a truly sustainable future by pawning off their oversized so-called "green" developments as energy efficient homes. Sustainable development has a long way to go if these are the projects (and the people) that are gong to be touted as energy efficient models.
