SUN-DAYA Campaign for a Sustainable Energy FutureSunday, has three primary objectives: |
1, Educate members of the general public, the media, decision makers and other about the status, potential, and benefits (i.e., creating jobs, protecting the environment) of renewable energy and energy-efficient technologies; |
2, Showcase the programs and technologies being sponsored by the participating environmental, consumer, labor, student, and religious organizations, businesses, utilities, government (federal, state, and local) agencies and officials, and others; and |
3, Encourage new public and provate initiatives to expand further the use of renewable energy and energy-efficient technologies. |
SUN DAY will feature a wide variety of programs initiated by participating organizations.
