Jumping In

This was the advertisement that energex sent out to encourage people to sign up for earth's choice - the program that allows you to purchase renewable energy rather than coal-based power.

I had already decided to sign up for earth's choice - but this ad prompted me into action (I think it was the cool picture of the frog). Anyhow, it turns out to be quite simple. If you're an energex customer, just call 13 12 53 and have your account number ready (it's written on the top of your bill).

By purchasing solar and wind power (and by not wasting power) we can reduce the amount of coal we burn, and hence the amount of carbon dioxide we put into the air.
