Dirty coal powerThe recent coal mining disaster and the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico have been the most recent reminders that dirty energy comes with frightening costs outside of our utility bill — human lives, environmental cleanup, and crippled local economies.  If the disasters taught us anything, it’s that we need to recognize the true costs of our power and act.  It’s time to embrace clean, renewable energy.

home solar as good option to dirty oil and coal

We need to move away from relying on coal and oil to power our homes.  SunRun is raising awareness about home solar through a new Facebook Cause, the Solar Roofs Challenge, to reach 10,000 new solar homes in 2010 in the United States.  SunRun already has thousands of home solar customers across the nation. We’ll keep you updated on the progress as we come closer to the nationwide goal.

We have a choice.  Home solar can reduce up to 50% of a home’s pollution every year.

Please join the cause and spread the word!
