FW: Granite countertops—and a solar system

A simple switch to solar can raise your home's value—and help fight climate change.

Hi Eddie—I just wanted to make sure you saw my message from the other day.


Dear MoveOn member,

Granite countertops, a dishwasherand a solar system. These are things that increase your home’s value, and while a solar system is pretty new on this list, it’s becoming standard on new homes. Research shows a typical solar system adds $15,000 on average to a home’s value–on top of potential savings on your energy bill.1

Find out more about solar energy for your home by clicking here.

But how about the community and environment you’re living in? Switching to the sun’s clean energy protects our air and water and fights climate change and its devastating effects. For the people battling record heat and wildfires currently raging in eight Southwestern states, including Utah, California, and Arizona, their homes and lives are in danger.2

The stakes are high.

Click here to find out how solar can work for you. You’ll get a $750 discount on your solar system if you sign up via this email.

As the climate crisis hits close to home, we can fight it right where we live. And so many Americans are moving to solar because it’s a good deal financially. Sungevity also makes switching easy by walking you through the options, remotely designing a system for you, and managing every aspect of installation.

Plus, for every sign-up, Sungevity will give MoveOn.org Civic Action $750, which will power our campaigns for progressive change and our fight against the harmful influence of the Big Oil and Gas lobby in Washington, D.C.

Take a simple, meaningful step toward clean energy today.

Thanks for all you do.
