Scientists believe global warming to be the greatest threat facing the planet today. The answer is for every one of us to become both a conserver of energy and a generator of sustainable energy. In addition, we need both the political will and the legislation to back that will. A Green Energy Act would establish sustainable energy and conservation as top priorities.
This advocacy kit will help you spread the word to your friends, neighbours, local leaders and businesses. It includes suggestions for getting the message out and for applying the political pressure needed to nudge our political representatives in the right direction. A Green Energy Act will pave the way for a clean, green future for our children. Get started now!
