Dept of Defense Goes Green

This is not necessarily new news, but the DoD is getting serious about going green and for real economic and strategic reasons. The DoD is huge consumer of energy, and risks lives supplying US troops with fuel. This is but one good overview link,  http://www.defense.gov/home/features/2009/0809_green/.  I would also encourage people to read Friedman’s “Hot, Flat and Crowded”  and in particular, Chapter 14 “Outgreening Al-Qaeda..”
