WH posted this video of solar panels being installed (in a small area) on the WH roof.
All this comes at the same time President Obama takes AF1 across the country (at $186K an hour) for Democrat fundraisers on the West coast. What an absolute joke.
Global Warming Freak Obama reverses Ronald Reagan, puts solar panels on White House roof
Nearly 30 years after Ronald Reagan tossed the solar panels Jimmy Carter had built into the White House roof, the Obama administration has completed installation of new panels on top of the executive residence.
It’s a symbolic move by the White House as President Obama pushes new initiatives to stop climate change.
“Continuing President Obama’s commitment to lead by example to increase the use of clean energy in the U.S., the White House has completed installation of American-made solar panels on the first family’s residence as a part of an energy retrofit that will improve the overall energy efficiency of the building,” said White House spokesman Matt Lehrich.
“The project, which helps demonstrate that historic buildings can incorporate solar energy and energy efficiency upgrades, is estimated to pay for itself in energy savings over the next eight years,” he said.
Wild Thing’s comment……….
Reagan IMO was correct about these things. I have seen so many homes that have these on their roofs and after being there awhile they are horrible. They get very dirty for one thing and collect leaves etc. plus like here in Florida they get what we have here a black mold that will grow like crazy on things outside. The mold has to be cleaned off once a year for sure and not one home I have seen cleans them off.
I would like to know exactly how much it costs for the president to even travel cross-country? That 186k per hour is for AF One. That’s doesn’t include the C-17’s transporting his and other support vehicles and personnel. I don’t think that also includes the spare 747, the backup to AF One, which travels with the president. I think if the American People knew the true cost for a president to travel by air for even one hour, they would be outraged and demand a stop to all unnecessary travel.
