After fossil-fueled trips to sunny Orlando, 25,000 real estate people allegedly "focus" on climate change policy

Realtors(R) Focus on Climate Change Policy - MarketWatch
ORLANDO, Fla., Nov 07, 2008 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- While many people think of cars as the primary culprit in global warming, the world's buildings actually emit more carbon dioxide than any other industry sector. Realtors(R) at today's Land Use, Property Rights and Environment Forum as part of the 2008 REALTORS(R) Conference & Expo learned how upcoming legislative and regulatory initiatives to address global climate change will affect the real estate industry.
The political climate seems poised for change. This year for the first time, a congressional majority supported sweeping climate change initiatives. Changes in climate and energy policies at the state and federal levels will affect homeowners and commercial investors across the country.
