Senate gives green light to Pentagon green energy

The Senate on Wednesday gave the green light to the Pentagon's investment in green energy. By a vote of 62-37 on Wednesday, the Senate backed an amendment that would delete a provision in the defense bill prohibiting the military from spending money on alternative fuels if the cost exceeded traditional fossil fuels such as coal, natural gas and oil. The Pentagon has opposed the provision that a sharply divided Senate Armed Services Committee added in May.

    How interesting is it that the opponents of increasing alternative fuels use come off as "dinosaurs"...just like the fossils below the ground that provide the oil they are so desperate to protect and promote and profit from.

    I'd like to see the Pentagon put some Solar technology on the roof. It seems a likely place.
