The State government is one of the largest consumers of energy in the State. As a result, the General Assembly finds that:
         (1) a 10% reduction in energy use by all State
    
agencies would result in a decreased demand on the citizens of the State;
        (2) the use of energy for electricity, heating, and
    
cooling of State buildings and transportation in State vehicles has a significant impact on public health and the environment; and
        (3) State agencies should set a strong example in
    
energy efficiency, water conservation, recycling, and waste reduction to demonstrate cost-effective solutions to citizens, businesses, and other government jurisdictions.
