SPONSORED AD: Green Power Providers Lower Your Carbon Footprint
By admin @ 10:01 AM :: 185 Views :: 0 Comments :: :: Friends of the Community

You reduce your personal environmental impact.
Conventional electricity production is among the largest industrial sources of carbon dioxide, a primary greenhouse gas linked to climate change. Electricity production is also a major source of pollutants that contribute to poor air quality and smog conditions. Leading environmental groups, including WWF-Canada, the David Suzuki Foundation and the Pembina Institute, advocate choosing clean, renewable power as a meaningful action that individuals can take to help address the global issue of climate change. Buying green electricity from a green provider reduces your personal electricity-related emissions footprint.
