The dem’s hot air along with 0’s could power DC up for the next century although I’m not sure how big the carbon footprint might be.

Why can’t they just switch back to coal and try out some of the experimental carbon sequestration technology that is coming out?

Nancy will probably put a wind turbine on top of the Washington Monument and knock down the Jefferson Memorial to make room for solar panels.

I’m waiting for windmills and solar cells to cover the Capitol Mall. Zero said those methods would save us all money, so what’s holding them back?

99-year-old facility that heats and cools the hallowed halls of Congress, still burns coal and accounts for one-third of the legislative branch's greenhouse gas emissions.....1/3 from the heating/cooling plant
.....1/3 from Congressmen breathing
.....1/3 from Senators breathing
If the just all kill themselves, there would be no breathing or need for the heating/cooling plant to operate.

While we swelter or shiver in our darkened homes to save the planet, Congress will continue to tax us more in comfort. Hypocrites!

I think it is very wasteful to use natural gas to produce electricity.
Always have...but its being done more and more.

It would make a great demonstration project. When it fails(using current solar and wind technology) they wouldn't be able to hide the disaster. Plus it will be their butts freezing and sweating during extreme weather.
Let's do it!!

I say that the Congress and the White House should go Electricity Neutral. Just shut the breakers off so they can legislate like the founding fathers used to. Maybe that way, nothing would ever get done and we’d all be left in peace.
