The world has an energy problem – we have become too dependant on fossil fuels. While the usage of coal predates history, it is the commercial exploitation of petroleum starting in the 19th century that kicked off our love affair with fossil fuels.

Problem is, fossil fuels are nonrenewable, meaning it will eventually run out. Extracting fossil fuels pollutes soil and water, rendering habitats destroyed and drinking water contaminated. Burning fossil fuels releases a plethora of air pollutants including carbon dioxide, the notorious greenhouse gas & Climate Change contributor.

Why not go solar? Solar power is renewable and clean. You save on utility bills, and on top of that, you might be able to sell whatever excess electricity generated. Check out LADWP’s current solar incentives on the next tab!
