We Members Go on the Record

Across the nation, thousands of We members answered our call and sent letters to the editor to local newspapers in support for repowering America with 100% clean electricity within ten years. Newspaper editors heard the message and members saw their letters printed in newspapers from Baltimore to Las Vegas, Milwaukee to Tucson. Below are a few outtakes.

Robyn Gibboney from Memphis, Tennessee wrote: “America can generate 100 percent of our electricity from clean energy. When Congress returns to Washington, I hope our lawmakers will vote for real change and the means to enforce change.”

Sarah Jacobson from Tucson, Arizona wrote to the Arizona Daily Star: “The longer we put off dealing with the serious impacts of inaction the worse it’s going to be when we finally have to deal with these issues.”

Perhaps Mical Hutson of Steamboat Springs, Colorado captured the sense of urgency best by writing: “Imagine what the world will be saying in 10 years if we commit to making this happen. Imagine our world if we don’t.”

Clean electricity is not enough. We need something like hydrogen with which one can power a vehicle. I can make hydrogen from sea waves

That was a great blog. Most blogs are not even worth reading.
