Top Ten Great Reasons to Buy Wind Power

1. Clean up Colorado's air. Buying wind power reduces smog, acid rain, and air pollution.

2. Renewable energy. Wind is inexhaustible.

3. For kids' sake. Our oil, natural gas, and coal won't last forever. We need to begin to develop our state's wind and solar resources now.

4. Your dollar$ count. Utility companies are spending millions of dollars to build wind farms, but it's your money that's making it happen.

5. Cheap energy is a myth. Yes, wind is a bit more expensive, but think about the hidden costs of cheap energy: smog, acid rain and snow, oil spills, climate change, human health impacts, nuclear waste, and lost salmon species. Wind is the real bargain.

6. It's your choice. For the first time in history, you get to choose where your power comes from.

7. Curb your own pollution. Buying wind power is a cheap, easy way to dramatically reduce the environmental impacts of your energy use.

8. Climate change. Each cent you spend on wind power keeps a pound of carbon dioxide, the chief greenhouse gas, out of the air. Let's be penny wise, not pound foolish.

9. Bang for the buck. For the price of a six-pack of Coke or a single video rental each month, you can save 1,200 pounds of coal and avoid 2,400 pounds of air pollution each year.

10. It's the right thing to do.
