Why Green Power?

  1. The Environmental Benefits include minimal, if any, byproducts of CO2 and other pollutants such as carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, and lead in comparison to those produced in the creation of energy through fossil fuels.
  2. Stimulating Our Hobbled Economy. In 1997, importing fossil fuels sent $65 billion dollars outside of our country. Renewable energy resources are developed at home. Furthering their development will keep billions of dollars here, creating more jobs for Americans.
  3. Our Children's Future depends on the technological advancements of these energy sources. Two things we know for certain are that oil won't last forever and the sun will.
  4. Our National Security is strengthened as our dependency for foreign oil is decreased. By moving toward renewable energies, we naturally shift toward freedom from unstable ground.

Philosophy

We are intent on providing a vital service and resources to our West Marin Community. Through working together in our area, we can begin to create the type of community that we would like to see across our nation and for all people.

Surrounded by such stunning natural beauty, in Marin County, it is our responsibility to do everything we can to protect our environment while taking a proactive stance against the reckless policies of our current administration. We need to reduce our wasteful consumption of fossil fuels, increase our use of clean, renewable energy sources, and utilize environmentally and human friendly alternatives to conventional building materials.

We would like to work with other members of the community in cooperation to help provide the necessary goods and services needed to be successful in environmental stewardship, community values, and positively good living.

We believe that our services should benefit everyone who needs them regardless of financial ability.
