How to Become Clean Energy Evangelist

A few weeks ago, CleanTechnica published my Clean Energy Evangelist Report Card. However, 1) I left some things out which I will add here and in a future article. 2) Please see some suggestions on how YOU can be a Clean Energy Evangelist.

If you are going to be a clean energy evangelist, you need to: 1) Be knowledgeable on what’s most important, 2) Be knowledgeable on what the advantage and cost differential of each clean energy choice is, 3) Set an example by making as many clean energy choices in your life as possible. Unless you have unlimited funds, you can’t run out and reduce your fossil fuel use to zero immediately. However, when it’s time to junk your old car or if your water heater, furnace, or lawnmower quits on you, that’s the time to seriously consider a clean energy replacement. Hopefully you can eventually switch everything you own to battery electric and heat pump electric, install solar panels on your roof, and install battery storage in your garage. Also, carpool and use public transportation when you can.

A real clean energy evangelist will take his EV to car shows (see lead photo) and drives it in parades. I’ve done this for 10 years, but I was more successful in the beginning. At that time, I was able to get friends with EVs to join me. Lately I can’t get friends and family to help and I’m doing it by myself. If you look carefully, in the photo you can see my 100% Electric and 100% Automatic Driving placards on my windows.
