Dear John

The latest climate report from the IPCC is clear – there’s no time to waste when it comes to the climate emergency. We must do everything we can to limit the damage.

And yet, despite everything we know about the climate-wrecking impacts of coal, the UK government is still funneling money into fossil fuels. Like the proposed deep coal mine in West Cumbria – the first in the UK for 30 years – that we’re campaigning against [1]. 

There’s a long way to go. But there's light at the end of the tunnel. Thanks to decades of campaigning, coal now accounts for just 1.6% of the electricity mix on the national grid. That’s compared with almost 25% just 5 years ago. 

Our partners, Ecotricity, use wind turbines and solar parks across Britain to supply green, vegan-certified energy to your home. So why not make the switch?  

For every one of you that joins, £50 will be donated to Friends of the Earth – a donation that will be repeated every year you stay with Ecotricity.
YES, I'LL MAKE THE SWITCH

Ecotricity is not-for-dividend and uses the money from your bills to build new sources of green energy in Britain. Later this year, Ecotricity will build 2 new sun parks. And in 2022, it'll bring geothermal to its customers' energy mix.

If you’re already with Ecotricity or another green energy provider, that’s great! You can help us turn the tides on fossil fuels by forwarding this offer to your friends and family and asking them to switch too.

For every new friend you refer until 15 September 2021, Ecotricity will donate up to £100* to Friends of the Earth. (*£50 per fuel.)

I WANT TO REFER A FRIEND

All the best,
