As one of the leading advocates for truely renewable energy in the state legislature, I applaud Lamar Advertising for their efforts to convert a number of billboards to solar and wind. Here's a portion of their news release:

 

Lamar Advertising Co., the 108-year-old company that operates more than 150 outdoor advertising companies in more than 40 states and Puerto Rico, announced today a multidimensional project to convert some 1,370 billboards throughout Florida to renewable energy. The $12.5-million project will place solar or wind power on billboards throughout the state, creating 1,370 individual renewable energy systems that will return energy to the electrical grid.
