I need to check on how they're doing (perhaps you could?), but the Germans committed to generating 40% of their energy by 2020 -- THIS YEAR!!!-- from alternative sources, primarily wind and solar. And THAT from a country that's 10 degrees further north -- but with similar weather -- than Cleveland, Ohio.
So it's been something of a disappointment to me to see how long it's taken for America to clamber aboard the bandwagon. But it's finally happening. See if you can last through the first ten minutes of this; it's an historic occasion.
