Take a moment and help get California back on track with the environment, working toward implementing the solar power plan...building a million solar homes by 2017.
After months of intensive campaigning for the country's most aggressive solar homes policy, we have finally received the official support of Governor Schwarzenegger! Now we need your help to pass our bill in the state legislature and put it on his desk within the next two weeks.
Please email your state assembly member and senator today and ask them to support Senator Murray's Solar Homes Bill, SB 199.

Building a million solar homes by 2017 will do the following:
* Install more than 2,700 megawatts of solar power, equal to 36 peaking power plants.
* Save ratepayers $2-5 billion dollars by reducing the need to purchase expensive power during periods of high demand;
* Bring California greater energy independence from the energy companies guilty of manipulating the state's energy supply for profit;
* Reduce energy demand during the hot summer afternoons, the time of day California continually faces energy shortages.
* Reduce hundreds of thousands of tons of air pollution.
