B: Heat island reduction

参考答案: A

本题解释:
A:When renewable energy (wind, geothermal, solar) is chosen over nonrenewable energy (oil, coal, natural gas), greenhouse gas emissions are decreased.

B:Heat islands would not be impacted.

C:Liabilities would not be an issue.

D:The up-front costs will probably be higher unless the owner can find a utility provider to install the system for free and then agree to purchase the renewable energy from the provider.
