Time to Act Green Instead of Think Green

Global warming is not a myth! It is happening and now is the time to act. Just as a team, it takes individual efforts to fight this battle. The city of Alton has virtually done nothing to address our environmental issues. Yes they offer recycling, but only the minority does it. We need to make it manadatory. The city needs to look at assisstance business into converting to solar power, and as new homes are built, give incentives to put in thermo-geo energy.

Each generation has always tried to make the world a better place and the baby boomers must lead the way. First easy step is to replace your light bulbs. Not only using energy efficent light bulbs help the environment, is saves you money in the long run. Up front costs of purchases may seem expensive but the lights can last up to 5 years.

Our city leaders are certainly not interested in our next generations or else they would be leading the way. Step up and act to make our city a better place to live!
