Environment America. With more wind and solar, we can move to 100% clean energy Too much of our energy comes from coal, oil and other dirty sources that wreak havoc on our environment.

Environment America

We are surrounded by clean energy options — the power of the sun, the movement of wind and waves, the heat of the earth, even the energy leaking from drafty windows in our homes and businesses. By using energy more efficiently and tapping our vast renewable energy resources, we can move to 100% clean energy that doesn’t pollute and never runs out. Efficient buildings will spur energy savings America’s homes are like cars that only get 10 miles to the gallon.

Environment America. The cost of our oil addiction American families are paying more than ever for our addiction to oil.

We pay for it with our lungs, every time we breathe in toxic chemicals released from burning oil. ‎www.planificacion.gob.ec/wp-content/uploads/downloads/2012/08/La-Iniciativa-Yasuni-Itt-desde-una-perspectiva-multicriterial.pdf?facebook&twitter.
