Solar Energy

Theme 47. My Sustainability Efforts. Ampion Solar Energy

As we are going through pandemic and other less widely covered by media catastrophes and ecological problems, I and so many other people on our planet start to wonder what can we possibly do to prevent any more harm done to the world as we know it.

An effort of one person might be small, but if we together as humans start taking responsibilities for our choices, communities and our Earth overall, we can make a difference and might improve the conditions of our world or at least slow down the inevitable catastrophic events that will fall down as a payment for our careless use of Earth. If we start today, now, we can hopefully buy another couple of millennia of prosperous future.

To be completely honest, my efforts have not been huge to this point. Apart from trying to eat less meat, shopping sustainably when I can, donating to organizations such as Ocean Cleanup and recycling, I have not done enough to be proud. That is why this year was a wake up call for me and I am continuously looking for ways to reduce my carbon footprint.

There are many small and easy ways to reduce your carbon footprint:

  • Turn the water off when you brush your teeth, conditioning your hair and don’t ever leave water running while you are on your phone or going to another room even for a minute.

  •  Unplug!  Leaving your fully charged device plugged in still uses up A LOT of energy. It is called “vampire power” and it drains up to $19 billion in energy every year in the USA alone.

  • Flip the switch. Turn off the lights when you leave the room. My mum also taught me that if you leave home for more than a week it is wise to turn off/unplug all the appliances and devices. She would clean out the fridge and turn it off it we were leaving for a long time. I used to think it was redundant, but now I realise how wise my mum actually is.

  • Reuse and Recycle. Reduce junk mail in your inbox, including billing (you can easily turn to paperless billing). Bring your own mug to a juice station or a coffee shop.

There is also some big ways you can help our planet “to breathe” - switch to alternative sources of energy!

My parents, for example, use solar energy to heat water for the house. My dad also tries to use well water and small windmills for generators and electricity in some parts of our house. Unfortunately, as I live in a rented apartment in Manhattan I cannot use solar energy just yet (it is all going to change in a very near future, just you watch!), however i discovered through my work with Souler.com and their partnership with Ampion that New York State residents and many other East Coasters can sign up for solar energy FOR FREE, without having to install any solar panels, any equipment and on top of that will get a lot of additional benefits.

If you sign up for Ampion, you will not only:

  • Reduce your carbon footprint and start using sustainable energy

  • Your electricity bill is guaranteed to go down at least by 10%!

  • You will get $100 gift card to spend on Souler.com and buy any fashion, home items and even masks that are so scarcely available right now


There is no downside of trying Ampion, and I am surprised people are not mass subscribing to this solar community. Apart from saving money, it offers a huge opportunity to contribute into better healthier future for our planet.
