Call on Your Elected Officials.Ask how our elected officials plan on
helping us transition to a clean energy economy.From providing
incentives to energy companies,to regulating how our electricity is
made,major decisions are made every day that can either perpetuate the
status quo or point us in a new direction.If we do not let our elected
officials know where we stand,and do not ask them where they stand,
change will not happen.You would be surprised how much influence a
single call (let alone a hundred) can make.Contact your Members of
Congress (you can call the Capitol Switchboard at 202-224-3121 to be
connected to the right office or find and email your Senator and
Congressperson).
Contact your state senators and other elected officials.
Contact your governor.You can use the sample script or email included
at our featured site,"We Can Solve It" as a starting point for your
conversations. It's at:
