I will spend at least 30 minutes learning more about the energy generation potential of biomass.

After researching the incentives at the federal, state, utility, and local levels, I will contact a local installer/distributor for a solar panel installation consultation on my house.

I will watch a video about methane digesters (also commonly known as anaerobic digesters).

I will spend at least 30 minutes researching other Drawdown Electricity Solutions.

I will make a donation to a nonprofit that installs microgeneration in low income countries.

I will write or call 2 elected official(s) telling them not to support fossil fuel subsidies and instead support wind energy generation.

I will sign up for my utility company's clean/renewable energy option. If my utility does not offer one, I will purchase Renewable Energy Credits to match my usage.

I will contact a local installer/distributor to see if a solar water heater makes sense for my house.

I will use my spending power to reward companies leading in creating or purchasing green energy and incentivize others to invest more in green energy.

I will calculate the greenhouse gas emissions associated with my household and consider how different lifestyle choices could reduce my negative impact on the environment.
