- Are you interested in becoming an organizer in your area?
- Maybe--But Not Sure What to Organize
- Tell us about your experience with alternative energy:
- I currently work for a design/ install company based in Pompano Beach. I have been in the roofing industry my entire life. Our company is branching off of a 24 year old roofing business by the name of All Atlas Roofing of S. Florida, Inc. with a superior reputation in the industry. I have been working in the solar industry for a couple of years. I may be young, but I am filled with new ideas and the drive to succeed, not just personally but on an industry level. We have several associates within the company who are working tirelessly on getting legislation passed that will lead to the advancement of the entire industry. You can learn more about this legislation at www.allianceforrenewableenergy.org.
- What excites you about this campaign?
- The potential for a booming renewable energy market.

Atlas Solar Innovations is a subsidiary of All Atlas Roofing of South Florida. We are distributors, designers and installers of Photovoltaic (PV), Domestic Hot Water (DHW), and Solar pool heating Systems for both residential and commercial properties. We cofounded the Florida Alliance for Renewable Energy - (FARE) for the promotion of renewable energy policies that will permit every individual, business and organization in the state of Florida the opportunity to become independent producers and sellers of all forms of renewable energy. We are very committed to be a part of this movement toward a healthy environment, future energy independence, and economic prosperity for the state of Florida.
Our Association endorses and promotes the adoption of the renewable energy policy that is proven to be the most successful and efficient renewable energy policy in the world. This policy mechanism is responsible for 50% of the world's renewable energy deployment in the past few years. Currently 45 countries worldwide utilize this simple, transparent policy. By adopting this policy, Floridians will be able to deliver renewable energy more rapidly and for less cost by including the participation of everyone; homeowners, business owners, churches, schools, farmers and others. Currently Hawaii, Oregon, California, Illinois, Minnesota, Michigan, Rhode Island and the city of Gainesville Florida are in the process of adopting this policy mechanism.
Germany, the first European country to implement this policy, is a great example of this renewable energy deployment success.
As a direct result of this policy, renewable energy accounts for 14% of Germany's energy supply as of 2007.They are targeting 27% by 2020, and 45% by 2030. They have 70,000 employed in the wind industry, 50,000 employed in the PV industry, 8,000 employed in the biogas industry. With a total of 250,000 people employed in the renewable energy industry. Germany’s policy success produces a $30 billion turnover and a net benefit of $9 billion annually. This simple policy levels the playing field for all producers and sellers of renewable energy.
It is imperative that we participate in the environmental and economic gift that renewable energy gives us.
We have the opportunity to create a widespread home-grown industry, the chance to spare the environment further damage, create thousands of local jobs, collect millions in local revenue, and establish Floridian generated energy independence.
Do not let Florida miss this renewable energy boom, bring it home, and bring it to Florida
At The Florida Alliance for Renewable Energy we firmly endorse the policy of Renewable Energy Payments (REP’s) also known as Feed- in Tariffs (FIT’s) to be the single most effective way to achieve widespread rapid deployment of renewable energy in Florida.
Please join us and help others to understand the necessity of this policy adoption for the future of state of Florida @ www.farenergy.org.
Thank you,

THERE IS NO TIME TO DELAY …to wait and see…or to see if someone else will step up to the plate. It is time for US to roll up our sleeves and go to work. Right now momentum is working in our favor, but if gas prices retreat, the public will forget the pain, and our moment may be lost.
PICKENS U We are recruiting "Campus Coordinators" for colleges and universities to represent the Pickens Plan on campus. We are looking for someone who can create a college page on the Pickens Plan site and also on Facebook encouraging folks to sign up for the Pickens Plan.
If you are connected to a college or university in your state, can be a campus coordinator, or can help find a campus coordinator, please let me know so we can get the process rolling.
PERSONAL ACTION OPTIONS We need to do more than “preach to the choir”. Sharing ideas with each other is encouraging but that will not
1) increase our membership
2) influence public policy.
3) If you know someone who is in the press, or someone who blogs, get them to cover this and ask those in the public eye to support this plan.
