Could this be the week our President made an eco u-turn on renewable energy? It just may be a tipping point - or let's hope - for solar power. Just 24 hours after the Obama administration gave a green light to have solar panels installed on the White House next spring, President Nasheed, of the sinking Maldive Island nation, had the Sungevity company put solar panels on his official residence. We'll talk to Sungevity founder, Danny Kennedy, about the significance of these back-to-back developments.In our second half of this week's, The Green Front, we'll chat with David Gordon, Executive Director of Pacific Environment about this summer's Russian fires and what they portend.
