Why it matters
Home energy use accounts for roughly 20% of greenhouse gas emissions in the United States. When we dig up and burn fossil fuels to create the energy that we use to cook, heat and cool our homes, power our lights, and charge our devices, carbon is released into the atmosphere. Too much carbon in the atmosphere can warm the planet, with increasingly devastating consequences. With Provision there’s a better way forward with CarbonBetter clean energy.
You can make a difference
We all want to do what’s best for our families, communities, and planet, but sometimes figuring out how to help can be overwhelming. What if we could make a positive impact by making a small change to where we get the energy supply that we use at home? What if making a difference was truly as simple as turning on the lights? With Provision it’s that simple.
Switch to Provision as your supplier and watch your personal impact grow each month.
See clean energy plans But carbon neutral is not enough
Even when we invest in clean energy projects that generate more and more clean energy, and we reduce carbon emissions through carbon offsets, we’re still left with too much carbon in the atmosphere from a history of digging up and burning fossil fuels for energy. 100% offset clean energy works to address what’s happening now, but it doesn’t address our carbon debt from what happened in the past.
To do this, we have to be
CarbonBetter.
CarbonBetter means that every Provision plan not only includes 100% clean energy, but every energy supply plan also plants trees, because trees are the original carbon-capturing superheroes. Technology has yet to surpass the efficiency of trees in capturing carbon, and reforestation is one of our most powerful tools in returning our planet to carbon balance. CarbonBetter energy goes beyond neutral to help tackle our carbon debt. Being a part of the solution is as simple as choosing a plan.
