    I am inspired to act on sustainable energy issues because I know that energy use is affecting climate change. I am inspired to take daily action and explain to others the importance of reducing our use of natural gases that contribute to the rising co2 levels. I want a healthy and happy planet for the future, so I will do my part now.
