Solar power at the White House could become a reality, as several solar power enthusiasts and firms have approached President Barack Obama to install panels on the building, according to a USA Today report.
President Jimmy Carter placed 32 solar panels on the White House back in 1979 but the system was later removed.
Bill McKibben and a group of environmentalists plan on giving one of those same panels to Obama later on this month during a "Put Solar On It" roadtrip to Washington.
"We're taking them back to the White House...It's time to put these back up," McKibben said on the Late Show With David Letterman.
