The Pentagon Is Getting Rooftop Solar
January 18th, 2024
Also the Pentagon: U.S. Military Is a Bigger Polluter Than as Many as 140 Countries:
…the US military is one of the largest polluters in history, consuming more liquid fuels and emitting more climate-changing gases than most medium-sized countries. If the US military were a country, its fuel usage alone would make it the 47th largest emitter of greenhouse gases in the world, sitting between Peru and Portugal.
Via: Electrek:
The US Department of Defense will install rooftop solar on the Pentagon as part of the Biden administration’s plan to “reestablish the federal government as a sustainability leader.”
In addition to rooftop solar panels, the Pentagon will also install a heat-recovery heat pump system and solar thermal panels to reduce reliance on fossil fuels.
