Switching to Green

The document introduces 'Switching to Green', a resource for office- and retail-based organizations in the United States to procure renewable energy. It notes that over 70 percent of US electricity is generated from fossil fuels, causing significant air and carbon pollution, and aims to simplify the procurement process for companies without an energy background.

• More than 70 percent of electricity in the United States is produced using fossil fuels, including natural gas, oil, and coal, which results in significant carbon and air pollution as well as impacts from fuel drilling and mining.
• The 'Switching to Green' guide is specifically tailored for organizations and companies in the retail and office sectors—such as nonprofits, universities, and financial, law, publishing, and real estate firms—that lack a professional energy background.
