Protect the Earth


Earth

Please transfer to Green Energy.
Your help is urgently needed to limit the warming of our planet.

About 80% of global carbon dioxide emissions are caused by our use of oil, coal and gas to supply the world´s energy. This means we must rapidly transfer from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources of energy if we are to protect our planet.

If there is just one thing you would do today for the sake of your children and theirs in turn, for the sake of the Earth – please send just one email or make just one call to transfer to a green electricity tariff. This may cost you no more than your current supplier. And this may, if you can persuade your friends and colleagues to do likewise, contribute to a chain of change, to spur the more rapid transfer from fossil fuels to a low-carbon society. All new products need consumer support to ensure their market expansion.

Sign up Today.

Please ring or email or go to this website giving your name and contact details and requesting a sign up to Ecotricity. Tel : 08000 302 302 Email : home@ecotricity.co.uk or business@ecotricity.co.uk or go to www.ecotricity.co.uk

Five further actions you could take

1. CALL FOR ACTION

Call for a global plan of emergency action aiming to limit the world's average temperature rise to 1.5°C above its pre-industrial level. Please click here.

2. SAVE ENERGY

Save energy at home, at work, at school, university or college, within business and government and at your local church or shop. Please click here.

3. SUPPORT COMPANIES AND POLITICAL LEADERS THAT ARE TAKING ACTION

Dupont has reduced its emissions by over 70% since 1990, HSBC is the world's first major bank to become carbon neutral; Marks & Spencer has committed to do so.*90 So as you shop, back companies that are taking action and minimise your presence with the passive. Write a letter of support, or condemnation to a company and please only vote for political leaders who aim to take real action.

4. PLANT A TREE – ONE OR MORE A YEAR

The United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) originally aimed to plant one billion trees to fight climate change through reforestation. Many billions have now been pledged and planted. Individually, or as a family, please plant at least one tree a year and join the UNEP billion trees campaign at their site. www.unep.org/billiontreecampaign

“When we plant trees, we plant the seeds of peace and seeds of hope.” Professor Wangari Maathai, founder of the Green Belt Movement and 2004 Nobel Peace Prize Laureate.

5. BEGIN A CHAIN OF CHANGE

And most importantly, please get five other people to do these things, to begin a chain of change.

There is still time to prevent the dangerous warming of the Earth but only a very few years. Please take action today.
