Wise Energy for Virginia

Join us on the Wise Energy Tour!

Virginia, like the nation, is at a critical juncture. The economy is declining and the climate is warming with potentially catastrophic consequences. Right now, Virginia has an enormous opportunity to secure a clean energy future that will reinvigorate the economy and curb emissions of harmful greenhouse gases.

The Wise Energy for Virginia Coalition is launching its statewide Wise Energy Tour to meet with engaged citizens just like you. We need to take our clean energy message directly to our decision makers. Meeting with your legislator is one of the best ways to make your voice heard.

What is the Tour about?

We aim to help equip you with the tools you will need to address your elected officials about clean energy and how Virginia can work towards a clean energy economy. Each tour stop will also include the following:

  • Learn the current state of VA’s energy policy and what we  can do to ensure a clean energy future
  • Celebrate how far we've come (more than 43,000 people like you have added their voice to the Mile Long Petition)
  • Become confident in communicating and building relationships with our elected officials
  • Join in the community of citizens who are working to make this clean energy future for VA a reality
All trainings will be from 7:00-8:30 PM
