Together we can make a big difference
As an energy company, we believe it's our responsibility to help protect the environment. We also believe that if each and every one of us does a little, together we can make a big difference. By teaming up with Cool Earth, we're allowing you to do just that.
We are helping to prevent global warming right here, right now by working with Cool Earth to protect the rainforest. The rainforest is the key to preventing climate change. It's the lungs of the earth, sucking up CO2 and breathing out priceless oxygen.
The trouble is, every second an area of rainforest the size of a football field gets destroyed (that's an area the size of Britain every year), and the earth loses some of its ability to deal with CO2. To make matters worse, sometimes areas of rainforest are burned - each acre that gets incinerated releases 260 tonnes of CO2 into the atmosphere.
Cool Earth stop this from happening by protecting areas of rainforest that are in imminent danger. To help them, we're protecting an acre of rainforest for each and every one of our customers. So by simply being an Ovo customer you can prevent the destruction of an acre of this precious resource, and contribute to saving the planet, without lifting a finger.
If you'd like to help save the rainforest and save money on your fuel bills, take a look at our two simple tariffs.
