I wish the government would incentivize business to allow this where
possible.  My personal preference to do so carries so little weight
that my employer has no reason to comply, but a monetary incentive
(tax break/etc) would induce far greater motivation.

Of course I would have to be willing to spend the money I save
elsewhere in the economy else the government risks destabilizing the
status quo - which is highly dependent on energy from dead dinos.
