Whatever happened to those solar panels on the White House? We've all heard how Jimmy Carter installed them, then Reagan took them down.
The backstory on the whole affair illustrates the cycle of change. Of course, we're lovin' it.
The Official Google Blog again zeros in on renewables with an article on the whereabouts of the decommissioned White House solar thermal system. Yes, it's still producing hot water.
Carter's speech dedicating the panels is worth eyeballing for historical perspective alone (includes YouTube link).
We're hopefully awaiting the specs on Obama's upcoming photovoltaic system...anybody know that story?
