What if my utility is not listed?
Please contact your utility and request
that they purchase renewables and/or offer their customers a green
power option that meets regional standards developed though Renew
2000. In this age of restructuring and customer choice, utilities
care what their customers think -- demand renewable energy and you
might get it!
Another option is to purchase
Green Tags through the Bonneville Environmental Foundation.
Green Tags are created when wind power or other renewable energy
is substituted for traditional power. Green Tags represent the real
savings in carbon dioxide and other pollutants that occur when green
power replaces burning fossil fuels. Buying Green Tags has the same
effect as buying green power. Both replace fossil fuel generators
with clean renewables, and both have the same environmental benefits.
And you can buy Green Tags from anywhere in the world!
