When Hurricanes Helene and Milton battered the U.S., millions lost power—except one town in Florida. Hunters Point, a net-zero community in Cortez, stayed fully powered through the storm thanks to solar panels and battery storage. While nearby areas went dark, their lights never flickered.
This is proof: solar works. It’s clean, self-sustaining, and it saves lives during climate disasters.
Yet most of Florida still relies on polluting natural gas—and when the grid fails, people suffer. Climate change is fuelling stronger storms every year. It’s urgent we switch to renewables now.
Sign the petition to demand leaders in Florida, Louisiana, and North Carolina act. We need solar infrastructure in every vulnerable community—before the next storm hits.
Sign the petition now to protect lives, cut emissions, and build a future that can weather the storm. Solar energy must become the standard.
