Switch to Renewable Energy

Mission Statement

We are a group of community college students committed to raising awareness about renewable energy and the urgent need to address climate change. This website was created to provide clear and accessible information about the impacts of climate change and to highlight the importance of switching to renewable energy sources. Our goal is to help others understand the problem, recognize the solutions, and feel empowered to take small steps toward a cleaner and more sustainable future.

The Effects of Climate Change

Climate change is already affecting our planet in devastating ways — from rising sea levels to record heatwaves. But one of the saddest consequences is the toll it’s taking on animals around the world. Many species are struggling to survive as their habitats disappear or become unlivable.

Below are a few species you may not have known are at risk of extinction due to climate change:

But it’s not too late to make a difference. One of the most powerful ways to fight climate change is through renewable energy.

Why Renewable Energy?

Unlike fossil fuels, renewable energy comes from natural sources that don’t run out — like sunlight, wind, and water. These sources produce little to no greenhouse gases, which makes them a powerful solution to slow down global warming and protect the planet.

By transitioning to renewable energy, we reduce air pollution, protect wildlife habitats, and invest in a cleaner, safer future for the next generation.

What You Can Do

Small changes over time can make a BIG impact. Turn off lights, reduce waste, and support clean energy efforts in your community.

Every action matters. Together, we can create a cleaner, safer future — one step at a time.
