The Department of Energy (DOE) announced $125 million in new spending Monday to fund 41 green energy projects ahead of the United Nations global warming summit set to take place next week.
DOE is funding dozens of green technologies through the Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy, or ARPA-E, program to find technological solutions to fighting global warming. ARPA-E projects are ones the government thinks show promise, but aren’t yet commercially viable.
“As we look beyond COP21, the energy technologies the Department of Energy invests in today will provide the solutions needed to combat climate change and develop a global low-carbon economy in the future,†Secretary of Energy Ernest Moniz said in a statement.
The projects include green energy storage, window insulation, algae biomass and wind turbines. DOE says most of the funding is going to universities and small businesses.

It’s not like the government would waste $500 million on solar energy or anything. *cough solyndra*
How does Obama keep “spending” OUR money?!?
We have a REPUBLICAN congress - who are supposed to hold the purse strings. Hang the buggers! They’re not doing THEIR job!
Don’t the capons in Congress have any control of the “purse strings”? The compromised unindicted coconspirators (aka: Congress) who make up congress support this asshat’s actions. We have some really great leaders there.
Nobody seems to care about the endless government spending. US debt is now over $18.7 TRILLION. As an American taxpayer, your share of that debt is $156,600 — and rising rapidly.
And, of course, these “Green companies” are all owned by Liberal contributors to Democrat campaign funds.
Republicans are in on this scam too. Why do you think Fred Upton banned lightbulbs?
Congress can and must defund the DOE for this and any future expenditure from this administration. Call/Fax your congressman NOW...
Contact them and get a boiler plate response that they appreciate your views blah, blah, blah. Slim dang choices for reps who actually do represent their constituents any more. But, at least they’re considering my views. I feel so much better now. LOL!
United Nations global warming summit = Operation Take Over
See A.Hitler
And probably never will be...
Energy Department Spent $1.8 Million Fixing Spiral Staircase
Obama and Hillary’s ‘great friends (donors - money bads) run those ‘green’ rip off companies... They’re being ‘rewarded’ for money to kick back to democrats running for office.
If only Obama cared as much about the American people as he does about the world’s grass and trees....
Throwing taxpayer good money to trash projects.
Actually, they are ripe with incestuous paybacks to supporter who stand to benefit with Govt subsidy.
time to end the corruption that is Barack Hussein Obama.
I thought we already did window insulation. My windows insulate very well; they’re the new energy-efficient retrofits.
Global Warming PING!
“As an American taxpayer, your share of that debt is $156,600 and rising rapidly.”
Um...just so you all know...I don’t HAVE that kind of cash.
It’s all on YOU, Suckers!
*SMIRK*
I’ll be on my (gun free!) boat, just THIS side of the Sea of Cortez, packing shotgun shells...if you need me...
You must need to upgrade to the absolute latest which will be obsolete within 6 months to a year.
