At a time when Congress and the White House are increasingly focused on curbing global warming and developing green sources of power, military-equipment manufacturer Lockheed Martin is raising its energy profile. Enticed by climbing energy prices, the company expanded into energy efficiency, working to help private companies and federal agencies lower their usage. Lockheed is also seeking to build the nation's largest solar-energy facility.
Lockheed's new ventures are being handled by Thomas Grumbly, the company's vice president for energy and environmental services. A longtime Washington insider, Grumbly, 59, worked in the Ford, Carter, and Clinton administrations. He also served on the staff of the House Science and Technology Committee's Investigations Subcommittee in the 1980s when the panel was chaired by Al Gore.
Continue reading edited excerpts of National Journal's interview with Grumbly.

This is so good to see. More companies should be going green in the future. There is a lot to learn from this.

Most writers would simply write for the sake of writing, but your desire to provide quality and accurate information is what makes you stand out from all these wannabe "professional writers".
