“We know that climate change is threatening the lives and livelihoods of people around the world – and that as Christians, we’re call to show love of God and neighbour by taking action in response. Switching to a renewable tariff is one of the most important contributions a church can make to reducing its net carbon footprint and encouraging the transition to renewable energy – which is a key part of reducing global carbon emissions.
And when you switch, you’re also helping our own local churches – the Big Clean Switch will contribute part of the commission energy companies pay when you switch into a diocesan fund offering grants to help our churches with their energy efficiency projects”
Rt Revd Olivia Graham, Bishop of Reading
‘Green energy’ means power generated from the elements – sun, wind, water (rivers, tides or wave power) and biofuels (gas released by rotting food and agricultural waste). Unlike dirty electricity generated by burning fossil fuels (oil, coal and gas), green energy is renewable and has little impact in terms of climate change and air pollution.
Renewable power sources like wind turbines and solar farms all feed their energy into the National Grid, like rivers running into a big lake. When you switch to a green tariff, your supplier guarantees that however much electricity you take out of the ‘lake’, the same amount of renewable electricity will be pumped in. The more people who switch to green tariffs, the cleaner the lake gets.
