>> It goes without saying that Floridians should be able to access clean, renewable solar power. We live in the Sunshine State, after all!
>>
>> But Florida’s political leadership disagrees. Bowing to pressure from anti-solar utilities, state officials have been rejecting ways to expand solar power in our state for years. In fact, Florida is one of only five states in the entire nation where customers have no say in where they get their power.
>>
>> This has to change: for our state, and for our climate. That’s why a growing coalition of businesses, conservatives, and environmental organizations — including Greenpeace — is working together to expand solar choice to Florida’s families and businesses. But to bypass anti-solar politicians, we need to bring this issue straight to the people.
>>
>> Help Florida go solar. Print, sign, and mail your petition to put solar on the ballot in the 2016 general election: expand solar choice for all Floridians!  <http://us.greenpeace.org/site/R?i=L849TlTbaNAN8BvQG1Sipw>
>> Mail your petition to the address below:
>>
>> Floridians for Solar Choice
>> 120 E. Oakland Park Blvd, Suite 105
>> Fort Lauderdale, FL 33334
>>
>> To secure a place for this solar choice initiative on the 2016 ballot we need 600,000 signatures. And every single one of them needs to be in paper form. This is a huge effort, but it could have a huge impact on our state.
>>
>> The good news is we are well on our way! The Florida Supreme Court has approved the ballot initiative's language and certified the 86,735 signatures that we have gathered in support of this ballot initiative so far.
>>
>> We are so close to making solar choice a reality. But we need Floridians like you to stand up for solar to get this measure on the ballot!
>>
>> Can you sign for solar in Florida today? Download the petition here, fill it out, and mail it to the address above. All petitions need to be returned via mail.

>> The ballot initiative would remove a barrier that currently blocks equal access to rooftop solar power. If passed, it will expand solar choice by allowing all customers the option to power their homes and businesses with solar power — and to choose who provides it to them.
>>
>> The choice to power our lives with solar should be available to everyone. In the face of catastrophic climate change, we can’t afford to let greedy utilities and stubborn politicians stand in the way of clean, renewable energy.
>>
>> Please send in your petition to support for this ballot measure today. <http://us.greenpeace.org/site/R?i=6GUjoE6Obj-y5UT6UVX4Tg> Every signature counts!

>> For the Sunshine State,
