In reply to the discussion: Obama's second term: A productive six months. [View all]Cha
(296,795 posts)27. First I've heard of this: President Obama Installs Solar Panels On White House
"Some old enough to remember Jimmy Carter will remember that he added solar panels to the White House in his adminstration, but that Ronald Reagan took them off when he became president. President Obama ordered in 2010 that new solar panels be put back on, and now they are doing so, and they are American made panels.
A White House official confirmed to the Washington Post Thursday that installation had begun on fitting the Presidents residence with solar panels, an effort the official said was part of an energy retrofit that will improve the overall energy efficiency of the building. The panels will be American-made, though the official did not confirm which company they would be purchased from."
Fucking reagun.
Thanks PS!
