Jay Leno goes green



Jay Leno returns with new episodes starting tonight on Zee Cafe. So, it seemed like a good time to share some of his 'green' interests.




The sultan collector of rare and expensive automobiles has an expansive 17,000 sq. foot “Big Dog Garage” in Burbank, CA. In a recent article in the Autos section of the LA Times Jay told the reporter about the 54-kilowatt solar power system that he installed atop his garage last month that on some days can power his air conditioning, overhead lights, power tools and still return some power to the city.


Apparently the 57-year old TV show host has been going over his garage looking for ways to make it more eco-friendly. Why, one might ask? – “My thing with the green situation is: Even if you don’t believe in global warming, don’t you want to screw the oil company or gas company or utility company?”
