CONSUMERS NEED ENERGY STAR!
BEFORE PHOTOVOLTAICS, I ASKED AN EXPERIENCED INSTALLER ABOUT SOLAR
INSTALLATION...HE SAID REDUCE YOUR CONSUMPTION!
AS EACH APPLIANCE DIED, WE CHECKED ENERGY STAR & PURCHASED THE
MOST EFFICIENT APPLIANCE AVAILABLE - NO ADDITIONAL COST!
WE GOT RID OF THE ENERGY GUZZLING SIDE BY SIDE REFRIG that mostly collected moldy science experiments buried behind too much wasted space - WHAT A WASTE!
THE ENERGY SAVINGS WERE APPARENT IN OUR MONTHLY BILL!
WHY NOT SAVE MONEY?
A FRONT LOADING WASHER PAID FOR ITSELF IN ONE MONTH.....BUT WE ALSO ADDED AN ENERGY EFFICIENT CHEST FREEZER AT THE SAME TIME & SAW THAT REDUCTION ON THE FIRST MONTH'S BILL...
THE ENERGY REDUCTION WAS ALSO DUE TO REDUCED WATER CONSUMPTION.
ENERGY STAR provides FACTUAL information that allows CONSUMERS to make informed decisions about their MONEY!
ENERGY STAR MATTERS!
MAGA EPA LEE ZELDIN IS NOT WORKING FOR AMERICAN CONSUMERS!
SUPPORT ELECTED LEADERS WHO SUPPORT YOU!
LIKE REP. DARREN SOTO (FL-9), AND KATHY CASTOR (FL-14).
Do you recognize this label?
It may be familiar to you if you own an energy-efficient refrigerator, washing machine, or other household appliance. Energy Star is an energy efficiency program that has saved over $500 billion in energy costs and prevented 4 billion metric tons of greenhouse gas pollution from entering the atmosphere. Those numbers alone make it the quintessential clean energy success story! But now, EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin is spreading misinformation about it and threatening to privatize the public program. In response to questions from SEEC Member Rep. Darren Soto (FL-9), Lee Zeldin said that the Energy Star program could be run outside of the government and voiced his doubts about how much the program saved consumers (as if he didn’t have access to basic data about the program administered by his own agency). Then, he went so far as to claim that the program was not created by Congress – but SEEC Member Rep. Kathy Castor (FL-14) was quick to correct him: “Energy Star was codified by Congress in 2005. It is the law.”
These exchanges were from the same hearing where Zeldin defended Trump’s plan to cut the EPA’s budget by more than half – that’s $4.9 billion on the chopping block for clean air, clean water, climate science, and more. The losses would be astronomical and fundamentally cripple the EPA’s mission. These attacks aren’t about saving money. They’re about making Americans more ignorant: about their household appliances, what’s in their air and water, and how urgent our climate crisis is.
