What is New Energy?
New energy is a new way of thinking about every aspect of energy
production and consumption. New energy is distributed, with
small, medium and large producers supplying our needs, and
communities becoming more self-sufficient. New energy is
renewable and collected from natural processes in the world all
around us - sun, wind, water and earth. New energy prides itself
on the smallest possible ecological footprint. New energy thinks
about conservation, recognizing that a joule saved is a joule
earned.
New energy is also people power. It flows
when we make a decision to step lighter on the Earth. It's the
win-win-win effect when we start to implement ecological
solutions and discover that we are happier and healthier as a
result. For example, when we ride our bikes and walk for more
regular trips, we reduce global warming, car crashes and air
pollution, but also get fit, reduce stress and develop a new
appreciation for our neighbours' flower gardens. As more people
make these choices, cities build more "greenways", and then more
people make these choices. New energy cascades in this fashion
through all aspects of our day-to-day lives.
