Our Energy, Our Future: We Have an Energy Challenge
We have an energy challenge.
The U.S. Congress will soon be considering climate change legislation. Congress must find solutions that keep costs down and electricity available - while addressing climate change. This is a critical issue and it's extremely important for you to contact your representatives.
Now is the time to have tough conversations with your elected officials. Begin a dialogue today. Together, we can find solutions and strike the right balance.
We encourage you to ask your legislators these tough questions:
- Experts say that our nation’s growing electricity needs will soon go well beyond what renewables, conservation and efficiency can provide. What is your plan to make sure we have the electricity we'll need in the future?
- What are you doing to fully fund the research required to make emissions free electric plants an affordable reality?
- Balancing electricity needs and environmental goals will be difficult. How much is all this going to increase my electric bill and what will you do to make it affordable?
