Yes, we’re in a ‘retro’ sort of mood this month as Mendocino Solar Service turns 20 Years Old!
In honor of 20 years “Serving You: Serving the Solar System,” on June 21st—the longest day of the year—Mendocino Solar Service is joining our friends at Solar Energiy Industries Association (SEIA) to celebrate National Put Solar On It Day.
With our June E-News, we invite you to join the celebration; click on any green text for a quick link.
According to SEIA:
#PutSolarOnIt is a National Day of Action to show support for switching to clean energy, fighting climate change, and the power of bringing solar power to communities all across the country.
2014 has been a breakout year for solar. Solar equipment costs continue to come down and installations continue to grow. More solar energy generation has been installed in the U.S. in the last 18 months than in the 30 years prior, and solar energy is the leading source of new electric generation capacity so far this year.
The United States now has enough installed solar capacity to power more than 2.2 million homes. In many states, solar power is now competitive with other sources of energy without emitting the dangerous greenhouse gases that cause climate change.
The overwhelming judgment of science is that we need to act on climate. Solar energy is a win-win solution: this growing sector can create jobs, bring savings to consumers and reduce the production of dangerous carbon pollution that causes climate change.
All across America there are opportunities to #PutSolarOnIt – to turn our homes, our churches, our schools, our lands, and our neighborhood rooftops into solutions to climate change.
