Buy Clean Energy 2010 Asks: It's One Month to Earth Day, Are You Buying Clean Energy?

Participants in Buy Clean Energy 2010 have purchased over 65,000 new kilowatt-hours of clean energy for the campaign, representing nearly 1.8 million kWh in clean energy purchases overall. Will you join us? If you already buy clean energy, visit www.buycleanenergy.org and add your name to the roster of clean-energy supporters. If you haven't yet, we'll give you an easy zip-code lookup feature so you can find options available to you in your area. You can also buy renewable energy certificates right from the site from several leading providers.

Help us spread the word. The campaign is having a great start, but we need you to help us tell the world about the importance of clean, renewable energy in improving our health, restoring our air and waterways, creating jobs, and improving our energy security. What better way to take action now than buying clean energy, and what better occasion than the 40th anniversary of Earth Day? Join environmental leaders like the American Council on Renewable Energy (ACORE), Center for Resource Solutions, National Audubon Society, Earth Day Network, and the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) by letting your friends, coworkers, and associates know about Buy Clean Energy 2010. The logo and a short description of the campaign is available at www.buycleanenergy.org/about.
