I would like to switch to clean, green power. How can I find out if it's available in my state?

For a complete list of green energy utilities across the country, visit the US Department of Energy’s Web site and use the clickable map to find options in your state. If your area doesn’t offer green power, you can offset your the carbon dioxide emissions of your conventional power by purchasing “green tags,” or compensatory energy credits that add renewable power to the grid equal to the power you use at home. Numerous green tag programs exist; one with which Co-op America has a partnership is NativeEnergy (800/924-6826).
