By purchasing 100% renewable electricity you are instantly switching your electricity dollar from a traditional coal-burning power plant to one or a combination of renewable sources of electricity generation (wind, hydro, biomass and solar), and stopping approximately 10 tonnes of C02 / year (for an average home) from being released into the atmosphere.

Do it now!


Simply seek out and purchase 100% renewable electricity from your local provider, or if you are in the mood for a change, try some of the renewable electricity from these retailers...

Why this action

is

important


The huge amounts of CO2 currently produced in excess of nature's ability to absorb (sequester) them are causing the global atmosphere to heat up (global warming). This in turn puts stress on all other parts of the global ecosystem, systems already under stress from human activity. Effects of this include increasing species extinction, desertification and climate change in general.

Environmental benefit

By removing the waste currently produced to provide you with electrical power (approx 2.3 tonnes of CO2 in the atmosphere per person per annum) you will reduce your ecological footprint and slow the effect of climate change.

Wellbeing benefits

Green house gas emissions and the resulting climate change will result in the expansion of current tropical disease zones resulting in the spread south of Malaria, Ross river fever, etc.... Climate change leads to an increase in the incidence of sever weather (storms, droughts) and will cause the sea level to rise anywhere from 1 - 25 meters over the coming decades and centuries.
