Renewable Revolution

Early this morning, thousands of knee-high pinwheels creating the outline of a wind turbine popped up on the National Mall in front of the U.S. Capitol!

The pinwheels were a celebration of an exciting announcement – that Procter & Ga mble has bought enough wind energy to make some of the best-known consumer products in America with 100% wind power.

An EDF Renewable Energy wind project in Muenster, Texas will generate as much electricity as used by the company’s factories in Ohio, Missouri, Louisiana, Kansas, and Ontario  to produce Tide, Downey, Dawn, Cascade, and Febreze.

Those products sold nationwide will now carry the words “made with 100% wind power,” helping us get the word out that the clean energy revolution is here, and it’s being made in America.
