Today, the energy sources used to create electricity differ in many
ways, including in their environmental impacts. In the United
States, electricity is most often generated using fossil or nuclear
fuels -- forms of power generation that can have detrimental
effects on human health and the environment through air emissions
and other problems. Despite advances in pollution controls over the
last 30 years, this conventional power generation is still the
nation's single largest source of industrial air pollution and is a
major contributor to greenhouse gas emissions. Electricity markets
now offer cleaner ways of producing power, however, and give many
consumers the ability to choose how their power is generated. One
of these choices is power from renewable sources, or "green power".
This book is a guide to purchasing green power and a summary of
federal renewable energy and energy efficiency programs.
