What is it?

Green energy, also referred to as Renewable energy, is energy sourced from resources that are available naturally and quickly in nature. This is contrast to fossil fuels which aren't infinite like green energy and they also cause a lot of harm to the environment, unlike green energy. Examples of green energy can include solar power, wind power, hydroelectricity and more. These sources are always going to be available in nature and they cause significantly less harm to nature than fossil fuels. Green energy is the most important factor in fighting back climate change, which is heavily caused by fossil fuel extraction.

Why?








LET'S ACT

Saving the Earth requires a global team effort, and we need your help. With collective action, our impacts will add up and we can sustain our planet for years to come. Not only is this good for the planet, but for your wallet too.

Wildfires

The National Interagency Fire Center has reported that on average, annually there are 70,000 wildfires in around the globe since the 1980s because of global warming. That is annually 86800 acres of forest land burned annually proabably because some people forgot to turn their stoves off.

Droughts

The current drought rates in the United States are extremely high due to the impact of fossil fuels. About 10% of the contiguous U.S. is facing severe drought conditions. This is causing significant hardships for farmers in those regions.

Water

Fossil fuels contaminate freshwater resources through acid rain and other means. Help safeguard water quality and create a sustainable future for generations to come.

Pollution and Health

Over 8 million people die prematurely every year from air pollution – more than twice as many as from malaria, tuberculosis and HIV/AIDS combined.
