Dr. Chu is Watching

Dr. Chu is Watching

Remember last week when I said you should tell the Department of Energy to fix the lamp standard because our Nobel Prize winning Secretary of Energy was listening?  Here is what he had to say on pending standards yesterday during an efficiency forum at the Capitol, from Greenwire,

"I am going to be looking at those because I have become more convinced that they are not as aggressive as they could be," Chu said at a conference held by the Alliance to Save Energy. "So we will look at making them more aggressive."

Enough said.  Go here and tell them to strengthen the proposed lamp standard.
