Tell OPPD: We Want Clean Energy Now

Sign the petition below to tell Omaha Public Power District (OPPD) to commit to a transition away from fossil fuels and toward clean energy. 

Nebraska is ranked as one of the top states in clean energy potential and yet we are not taking advantage of this opportunity, despite the enormous benefits that it could bring to our state. In fact, right now Nebraska gets more than 60% of its electricity from fossil fuels like coal. 

Fortunately, we can make a difference. Nebraska is 100% public power. What this means is that we, the public, own our electric utilities and we elect the people who are in charge of them. OPPD has substantial influence over Nebraska's energy policy. OPPD is governed by an 8-member board, and these board directors are responsible for deciding whether we invest in clean renewable energy, or stay committed to fossil fuels like coal. 

Sign your name to tell your OPPD official that you want a transition away from fossil fuels and toward clean energy in order to improve Nebraska's quality of life.
