Obama promised that his creation of the Global Energy Corps, would help promote clean energy projects abroad, especially in developing nations, with the help of "older individuals such as teachers, engineers, and doctors."
This is not to be confused with Obama's new AmeriCorps program called the Clean Energy Corps which encourages youth to participate in weatherizing events. The Global Energy Corps specifically mentioned older individuals.
Our searches on Google, Nexis and the White House website turned up no evidence of a specific "Global Energy Corps." We also contacted AmeriCorps, the Peace Corps and the White House, but none provided evidence that the program had been created.
Because we found no evidence to support the creation of a Global Energy Corps, we have moved this to Promise Broken.
Stand up for the facts!
Our only agenda is to publish the truth so you can be an informed participant in democracy.
We need your help.
I would like to contribute
