Paint the army green. Especially the bombs.

Informed Comment: By Juan Cole

Dennis Kucinich wants a massive government program to retrofit homes for solar and wind energy. I don't know if homes are the place to start, but I agree that solar and wind would become more viable if the government threw a lot of money at them. Personally, I'd start by making the Defense Department and the military as green as possible. This would have the advantage of being attractive to the Republicans, of getting the corporations on board, of potentially giving our military advantages in the field, and of being hard for the conservatives to argue against.



An unanticipated nugget. (Green) black humor from Prof. Cole?
