Los Angeles Selects EverGEN Solar Powered Lights Popular City Bike Path

Carmanah Technologies (TSX: CMH) is pleased to announce that the City of Los Angeles has selected Carmanah EverGEN 1710 solar powered lights to light a popular bicycle path.

But we can prevent Arctic oil spills – by not drilling there.
