Petition For Renewable Energy Standard - 20% Renewable by 2020

Dear {your Congressperson},

Now more than ever, our country needs to invest in clean, renewable energy sources like wind and solar power.

We have the technology today to produce 20 percent of our country's electricity from renewable energy sources by 2020. The Udall-Platts Renewable Energy Standard (H.R. 969) would require utilities to meet this important goal. More than 20 states nationwide have already adopted a Renewable Energy Standard.

This proven policy will help curb global warming, save consumers money, protect our nation's energy security and create thousands of new clean energy jobs. In fact, a new clean energy policy based on wind power, solar power and energy efficiency could create 1.4 million jobs by 2025.
