"In 1885, long before anyone talked about carbon footprints or climate change, Warren Johnson launched a company to explore new ways to harness and conserve precious energy resources. Even before he founded the firm, which since 1974 became known as Johnson Controls, Warren Johnson was the quintessential inventor. His pneumatic tower clocks, electric storage batteries, wireless telegraph business and steam-powered luxury cars and postal service trucks anticipated, and shaped the future. He was way ahead of his time and the rest of the world is still catching up."
