Diminishing resources and pollution control policies are likely to increase energy costs in the years to come. Low income families already spend a disproportionate amount of their incomes on energy costs. As we transition to a clean energy economy, it is essential that low income households not be unfairly burdened. The solutions? Fairness and equity at the heart of new energy policy.
Ask for Fairness - Urge your elected officials to support policies that will ensure equal access to energy efficiency. Request Support - Contact your local utility provider and urge it to increase resources for weatherization in low income communities. |
