Gem of the day

Ever since Newt Gingrich agreed to sit on a sofa with Nancy Pelosi to plug cap-and-trade, we've known sustainable development can be promoted by unlikely sources. Even so, this one is beyond the pale (via McClatchy):

"Solar-powered lights serve as sentries where U.S. Marines once faced-off along the Cuban frontier. A team of Navy cops now rides bikes rather than gas-guzzling patrol cars in the searing Caribbean sunshine...'From my perspective certainly the greening of Gitmo [Guantanamo Bay] is important,' says U.S. Navy Capt. Kirk Hibbert, the base commander."

Um.
