What’s wrong with this picture?

It’s Summer, and just about every store in my “Green” city turns on the AC and opens its doors wide.

Boulder Bookstore. Laughing Goat. The Cup. Hapa…all my faves do it. You know how much energy it takes to make the inside like an icebox, and leave the doors wide open (which I understand helps retail) when it’s blazing hot outside? It’s like leaving the door of a refrigerator the size of your house open, all day long, every day.
