MOVING TOWARDS A DECARBONIZED FUTURE
The carbon intensity of electricity generation in the United States will decrease by more than 26% from 2020 to 2050.*
As we move towards this decarbonized future, we cannot ignore those who will inhabit it – today’s young people.
In 2050, today’s kindergartners will be 33 years old. With renewable resources powering more of the grid and electrification powering more of our world energy efficiency becomes more important than ever. Inspiring the generation that will live in this decarbonized world to adopt energy efficient behaviors today will empower them to influence the world of tomorrow.
