Pledge to reduce use of fossil fuels

GLEE (Green Living and Energy Education) is circulating the pledge below.  While it may not be possible for everyone to do all the steps outlined in the pledge, we all can make improvements in how we use energy and other resources.  If everybody made even small changes in how we use fossil fuels, we could make a difference.

GLEE would appreciate it if you'd highlight-copy-paste the pledge (in the box below) into the body of an email, electronically "sign" it, and email it to them at:  info@keysglee.com.

I PLEDGE

TO REDUCE MY DEPENDENCE UPON FOSSIL FUELS


 

Oil spills are terrible. We all abhor what BP has done to the water, the wildlife, and the way of life of citizens of the Gulf of Mexico and the world. However, I also understand the connection between OUR consumption of oil and the aggressive manner in which oil companies are feeding our addiction.

 

Therefore, I pledge to reduce my use of oil and all fossil fuels by 10%, starting today.


 

I pledge to carpool, walk, bike, or take public transportation instead of driving.

I pledge to stop using plastic bags (made from petroleum).

I pledge to stop buying things I don’t need, especially those made from plastic.

I pledge to use less electricity (fueled by oil).

I pledge to reduce my water consumption (pumped by oil).

I pledge to never, ever buy water in a plastic bottle again.

I pledge to take one fewer trip on an airline per year.

I pledge to buy as much local food as possible.


 

I take this pledge now, as oil continues to leak into the water, to reduce

my dependence on fossil fuels by 10% NOW.
