<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body">A quest to get Barack Obama to shout his commitment to solar power from the roof tops - by re-installing vintage solar panels at the White House - ended in disappointment for environmental campaigners today. ...
A California company Sungevity had offered to equip the White House with the latest technology.
But the White House declined ...
McKibben told reporters after the meeting:
"They refused to take the Carter-era panel that we brought with us and said they would continue their deliberative process to figure out what is appropriate for the White House someday. I told them it would be nice to deliberate as fast as possible, since that is the rate at which the planet's climate is deteriorating." ...
The van carrying the solar panels is now parked a few blocks away from the White House and will be rolling again on 10th October as part of the 10:10:10 international day of action on climate change. </div></div>
