And if that's what he's doing, he's surely paying more than his neighbors for power, which would be putting his money where his mouth is.

Would the green energy not be produced without his purchasing it? If it's being produced anyway, then presumably his use of it to power frivolous items takes it away from someone else, who instead must use "dirty" energy from sources such as Diablo Canyon.
