For our Texas Readers: Solar Energy for Texas

In line with my recent focus on alternative energy, I'd like to draw your attention to an organization in Texas pushing for solar power: the Texas Solar Energy Society. Their mission statement "is to increase the awareness of the potential of solar and other renewable energy applications and to promote the wise use of these sustainable and non-polluting resources." They have lots of information on alternative energy including how you can help build renewable energy infrastructure by purchasing green energy (my wife and I do this here in NY State...it only costs us about 50 cents extra a month). Given the fact that we have less than 10 years (maybe only 5 years) to act to mitigate global warming, I really think local and state level organizations like these are critical to changing energy policy in America.

The Texas Solar Energy Society has chapters in:

El Paso

Houston

San Antonio

North Texas

And Central Texas.

Check them out, help them out and go green in Texas.
