Yesterday I gave my review of An Inconvneient Truth, an excellent movie that outlines our current environmental crisis….global warming.

I hope that it made you think a little bit about what you can do to be a part of the solution. I know it made think about this deeply. There are many ways we can decrease our carbon dioxide emissions and here are just a few of them:

1. Drive a fuel efficient, hybrid, or electric car. Or reduce the number of miles you drive by walking, biking, carpooling or taking mass transit wherever possible.
2. Consume less - Stop junk mail, buy recycled products, use reusable products.
3. Use compact fluorescent lightbulbs, unpug appliances when not in use.
4. Move your thermostat down 2° in winter and up 2° in summer
5. Clean or replace filters on your furnace and air conditioner
6. Use energy efficient appliances.
7. Plant a tree to help absorb carbon dioxide.
8. Switch to green power.

This last item “switch to green power” may seem a bit daunting. Not many average folk have the resources to install a 20,000-40,000 solar energy system on their home. But what if you could afford it…wouldn’t you jump at the opportunity? Well, I have recently discovered something amazing. You can now afford solar energy in your home.

Yes, you can have an engineer come to your home and design a solar system for you that will provide enough energy to run your entire home in most circumstances. It will be installed for you and you do not need to worry about maintenance or upkeep. All of this can be had in exchange for a $500.00 secuirty deposit.

Okay I may have lost you there. I am sure you are thinking that this is not possible but I am happy to say that it is. I discovered this program to get solar energy for your home and it is really amazing.

This program packages solar power for you in a simple and smart way. Plainly put, the program pays for, installs, owns and operates the solar installation. You don’t have to worry about maintaining the equipment or any of the other concerns that come with making an investment into solar power. All you are required to do is pay for the electricity generated from these panels, at a fixed rate that is at or below your current electricity price, for as little as one year or as many as twenty-five years. Just take a look at some of the benefits that you would receive:

1. No upfront investment, no need to become a financial expert to justify your investment.
2. No waiting for rebates.
3. No headaches with the city and the utility; let them handle the engineering, procurement, and construction.
4. Performance-based contract means you only pay for what is delivered. And since the solar power you generate will reduce the need for electricity from your power company, your net payment should always be equal to, or less than, what you’re paying now.
5. Hassle-free operating and maintenance; it’s handled by the experts.
6. Actual hedge against future utility price increases: you can “lock in” your rates for the electricity generated from the solar system at your home for a period of up to twenty-five years, far longer than the guaranteed rates offered by other electricity providers.

But there is plenty more. Take the time to visit the site and learn more about clean solar power, how this program will benefit you, and how you can get started. Go ahead and take that step towards helping us provide a safer, cleaner more reliable electricity service for our world. I know I will be taking that step along with you. If you have ANY questions just drop me an email at admin@naturemoms.com.

AND if you want to do even more and perhaps help spread the word about this awesome opportunity you can find out more here. Be a part of the solution!

    Excellent point Tom. If you choose the 25 year plan you can essentially lock in your rate. That has the potential to be a BIG money saver!
