Don't people go telling us to cut back our living and be "greener", while they live in HUGE houses, fly around in private jets, drive huge cars, ... whatever you're going to demand people do, you do first! Wanna see a REAL environmentalist, who's SERIOUS about going green, look at Ed Begsley Jr. 8) - eidylon Wed, 03 Dec 2008 17:07:38 +0100 http://www.ecogeek.org/efficiency/2344#comment-21478 I hope he's going to do more than just change the f---ing light bulbs. - moorcito Wed, 03 Dec 2008 11:16:47 +0100 http://www.ecogeek.org/efficiency/2344#comment-21462 What if everyone took what he said out of context, and his intention was simply to paint the whole thing green? :D - Yoshi Wed, 03 Dec 2008 05:43:03 +0100 http://www.ecogeek.org/efficiency/2344#comment-21438 Why would Reagan tear them down? - Mr. Lee Tue, 02 Dec 2008 17:16:25 +0100 http://www.ecogeek.org/efficiency/2344#comment-21436 Whatever happened to the solar hotwater panels that Jimmy Carter installed on the roof of the White House? I know Reagan tore them down, but it'd be interesting if they're just sitting in the basement, or a warehouse somewhere. - Steve A. Tue, 02 Dec 2008 16:52:14 +0100 http://www.ecogeek.org/efficiency/2344#comment-21434 I'd like to see a blower door and infrared camera test on the White House with a weatherization barnraising broadcast teaching people how to caulk and weatherseal windows and doors. Then maybe blowing insulation into wall cavities if and where it is needed. Do all that before putting up the solar panels and windmills. Seal all the leaks before going renewable. That's the way you do it. PS: We are doing a weatherization barnraising with blower door and infrared camera in Cambridge, MA on December 6. - gmoke Tue, 02 Dec 2008 16:06:47 +0100 http://www.ecogeek.org/efficiency/2344#comment-21428 The Obamas should eschew the WC and instead collect night soil. Each morning the presidential night soil could be ceremonially placed in the presidential vegetable patch. This would do more than fertilize the presidential vegetable patch, as it would engender solidarity with the millions of Africans and Chinese for whom this practice is a standard way of life. - NightSoil Tue, 02 Dec 2008 14:33:58 +0100
