I'm sure there are builders out there that are cashing in on this 'green' movement, but I imagine many builders and developers are simply trying to stay afloat during these harsh times. One advantage they do have is the ability to safe the homeowner money, unfortunately that sometimes means a higher up-front cost for long-term benefits.
