Dear B,
Supporters like you have almost completed the Repower at Home Coal Challenge -- preventing the equivalent of 7 million pounds of coal from being used by 10.10.10.
In fact, you're 75% of the way there. But to finish strong, there are a few simple things you can do that will save you money
and save a huge amount of energy in your home.
The small choice between using cold water and hot water to run a load of laundry makes an enormous difference. Hot wash cycles use
90% more energy without getting your clothes any cleaner. On top of that, the hot cycle makes colors fade and wears out your clothes more quickly.
To stay on pace, we need 203 supporters to pledge to start using the cold wash cycle. That's one easy commitment that will help save your clothes, your cash and your planet.
Make a commitment to use the cold wash cycle and take on the Coal Challenge. Cutting down on household energy use is one of the most effective ways to break America's addiction to fossil fuels -- especially coal, the dirtiest one of all.
It's also an easy way for you to do your part to take on the global climate crisis.
The
October 10 Coal Challenge is a declaration that you and I won't wait around for anyone else to fight against climate change. This is our chance to take the lead.
You can get involved by making a commitment to lower your energy usage -- and your energy bills -- by making simple changes around the house. Using the cold wash cycle is just one of many things you can do right now to help end our dependence on fossil fuels.
Please pledge now to wash your clothes with cold water and stop throwing money down the drain. Burning coal speeds up climate change and fills our cities with asthma-inducing smog. This is our chance to fight back -- I hope you'll get involved today.
Thanks,
Keith Goodman
Director
Repower at Home
