On Energy Independence

“I believe that the U.S. thirst for oil is a factor contributing to wars in the Middle East and tensions around the globe. So I reduced my heating oil consumption from 735 gallons to 440 gallons per year, and I reduced my gasoline consumption even more. I'm convinced that if most Americans followed suit, there would be more peace on our planet.”
Daniel Ruben

On Climate Change

“I insulated my home and air sealed my attic, basement and windows, and now I use less energy and the house is much less drafty." Michele Davis

“I'm proud to say that our family went zero carbon this year using the New England Wind Fund. I can't think of a better way to safeguard my eleven year old daughter's future.” Laura Katleman-Prue

On Economy

"Besides saving money and greenhouse gases, compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) have made changing light bulbs almost a thing of the past. It is an interesting puzzle to find the right CFLs for our few remaining fixtures still using incandescent bulbs."
