Why Renewable Energy?

With every month that passes, we're given increasing information to motivate us, as a nation, to embrace renewable energy. Here are three compelling reasons:

Americans use 30% of the world's oil supply yet only 2% of that comes
from our own soil. By embracing renewable energy, we can significantly reduce our dependency on foreign oil.

Renewable energy and conservation projects create 300% more jobs than the construction and operation of new traditional power plants of equal costs.

With every mile that we drive our gasoline powered cars, we send one pound of CO2 into the atmosphere.
