Day 1

Considering the weather (For those not in my city, Melbourne was rather in a terrible state of heavy winds and downpour all day) I didnt have the option of going out to “look” for anything. There was this Origen Electricity bill right on my desk and it carried an invitation to switch to 100% green power (as against the present 25% as per the plan).

I picked up the phone and made this choice immediately! My humble shop will now have 100% Green power. So, it was not very difficult for me to start my “proud” spending today 🙂

Here’s an excerpt from their website giving you information about the fabulous Green power:

GreenPower is electricity that comes from new renewable energy generation sources, like wind, biomass and hydro. To be accredited by the National GreenPower Accreditation Progra, these sources must have been built after 1997, encouraging continued investment in Australia’s renewable energy industry.

All our green electricity products carry the accredited GreenPower tick. So you can be confident that Origin GreenPower will genuinely reduce your impact on our environment.
