Consumers don't mind green energy's extra cost

Consumers in the U.S. are increasingly choosing alternative energy sources, even though they cost more, according to a recent article in the Washington Post.

Utilities in 36 states offer some form of green pricing, and last year 430,000 households bought green power - up 20 percent from a year earlier, the U.S. Energy Department reported.
