Winds of Change?
A new report titled Michigan's Offshore Wind Potential from the Land Policy Institute at Michigan State University says that Michigan has the potential to become a big player in offshore wind energy. At the same time, the Federal Government has also issued a report that investment in coal is now more expensive than wind.

Change a Light, Change Michigan
Starting October 1st compact fluorescent light bulbs will be available at an unbeatable price: 99 cents at participating Meijer, Kroger, and Menard’s stores, as well as seven Lansing-area and three Upper Peninsula Ace Hardware stores. At that price, these bulbs are sure to fly off the shelves.

Riding the Green Wave in Michigan
All across the state, businesses that leverage wind, sun and alternative energy are starting or expanding. Click through for information about the recently approved Renewable Energy Package and all kinds of links and articles about alternative energy like wind energy, solar power & biomass in Michigan.
