MAKE A PLEDGE TO SAVE ENERGY AND COMBAT GLOBAL WARMING

 

 

Change a Light, Change the World

Be part of our MMWEC team and pledge to make your next light bulb or fixture one that's earned the government's ENERGY STAR® label for excellence in energy efficiency. The pledge is a simple but vital method of encouraging more people like you to commit to preventing greenhouse gases and saving energy resources, one light — one energy-saving step — at a time.

 

Our goal is to get 500 people to pledge to change at least one light at home. By reaching this goal we will be making a significant impact on our environment, potentially preventing approximately 60,000 pounds of greenhouse gas emissions and saving 47,000 kwh of electricity annually.

 

Every ENERGY STAR qualified Compact Fluorescent light bulb uses 75% less energy than a standard bulb, lasts up 10 times longer and can save about $30 or more in energy costs — while preventing more than 400 pounds of greenhouse gas emissions over its lifetime.

 

How to Pledge

MMWEC has made a commitment to do our part to save energy and help fight global warming.  We have established a site for you to register your pledge to replace standard light bulbs with Compact Fluorescent lamps.  With your help, we can do even more. Simply click on the Change a Light logo above to make your pledge.

 

Thank you for your support.
