It's easy to sign up for
"green power" through IPL's website. This energy comes from renewable
sources, reducing our state's coal dependency. For only few dollars
more each month, you will have the peace of mind of substantially reducing your
carbon footprint. Go to http://www.iplpower.com/ipl/index?page=IPLGeneral&Menu=01050300&DocID=0205016c986701096a4e9803007c1f for
