But we need the right national energy policies to make all of this happen.

Watch the video about one of these amazing new technologies, and then urge your legislators to propel us into this new energy future today.

Dear Decision-maker,

Clean energy technologies exist today that can help us solve climate change, grow the economy and increase our energy independence.

With the right policies, we can do all of these things. To stay competitive in the 21st Century, we must unleash the clean energy future.

It is up to leaders like you to do your part and support effective state and national energy policies. You must give energy innovators the political green light they need to advance and finance their work.

I urge you to support a national economy-wide cap on global warming pollution to unleash the clean energy innovators.

Our future depends on it.

These are exciting times. Some would look at the green movement as a threat to their old values or old money. However, I look at it as a potential for a cleaner and more secure world. Innovation and change will fuel and grow a new economy. We will either lead or follow. We should lead!
