The recently revamped Ford Rouge truck plant in Dearborn, Michigan is receiving applause from environmentalists for
its innovative use of green technology. A living roof provides energy saving insulation with a specially formulated
sod, large skylights allow natural light to illuminate the assembly line and even toxic paint fumes are recycled to
provide power. The company even gives tours of the newly
rehabbed plant. The only thing the pundits don’t like is the product the plant produces, the best-selling Ford F-150.
You can’t win them all right Ford?
