Attention innumerate Wal-mart shareholders: Try to get all excited about Wal-mart's solar efforts, which have allegedly saved 2 entire million dollars since 2005, while your company only took in 447,000 million dollars last year!

Business: Walmart's CEO [Mike Duke] doubles down on the company's aggressive bet on renewable energy -- 04/18/2013 -- www.eenews.net
"More than ever, we know that our goal to be supplied 100 percent by renewable energy is the right goal and that marrying up renewables with energy efficiency is especially powerful," Duke said. "The math adds up pretty quickly..." Since 2005, the company has installed more than 200 rooftop solar arrays on its U.S. stores, resulting in an estimated $2 million in energy savings.
