Even the Government is Going Green

Just learned thru a press release that the Federal Government, specifically the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has reversed its decision regarding its prohibition on accepting applications for renewable solar energy on public lands

What a great move! This means that the Federal Government will essentially allow the use of Federal Lands for renewable energy sources. Think of all those vast empty areas in the SouthWest and Western US which are undeveloped and have huge amounts of sunny days each year. Those lands can now be use to harness solar power! Horray for lower electricity bills.....now I can use that money we are going to save for buying gas... :)
