Leave it to the Europeans to thoroughly document a glorious chapter in American history -- the comprehensive energy policy of the Carter Administration and the decision in 1979 to install solar panels on the roof of the White House.
In "A Road Not Taken," Swiss filmmakers Christina Hemauer and Roman Keller, working on a next-to-nothing budget, take their camera from Maine to D.C. to Atlanta to explain the history of the installation and sadly the later removal of the solar panels by Ronald Reagan.
While President Obama has yet to install solar panels on the roof of the White House again as he promised, the film does end somewhat happily as they deliver one of the original solar panels, which had been stored at Unity College in Maine, to the American History Museum in Washington for permanent storage as an important artifact of American history.
Here is the trailer:

Jimmy Carter is really an environmental advocate. The construction of the solar panel in the White House is an example of how dedicated Jimmy is to the environment.
