Good on them, I'm glad to see this. Politico (no link) must have written their "Obama follows Carter" story 2 years ago, and have just been waiting to fill in the date. I don't know how much this is a result of the 350.org project, but they should get credit for pushing the issue.
Appropriately, today is also the deadline for Photovoltaic Manufacturing Initiative applications, which is a pretty big deal. Steven Chu is on the ball, and he has people listening to him in the West Wing, which is good.
