–Washington, DC–
Every night, weekends too…. just drive across the Mall on 7th Street and independence and look up- you’ll see two empty federal DOT buildings….with all the lights on.
But Obama (Read article) wants agencies to work on carbon reduction measures and to report within 90 days. How about ” Hey everyone! we really don’t need to keep all federal buildings lit up all night and weekend!” I live in DC…the fed workday is 9-5….Saturday at 11pm is unlikely to have many worker…and they could just turn on the light to their own office, even if they want to work that late!
Really, if it is a security measure….and our gov is serious about reducing our carbon footprint, then they need to come up with a better solution.
Green Rant: JUST TURN OF THE LIGHTS AT NIGHT and on WEEKENDS!!!!!!!
