In Celebration of Earth Day and Arbor Day, First Choice Power Will Plant 10 Trees on Behalf of Each Customer Who Signs up for a 100% Green Electricity Price Plan

Posted on: Monday, 20 April 2009, 16:20 CDT

IRVING, Texas, April 20 /PRNewswire/ -- "Choosing renewable energy is a personal choice, a statement, and we want it to be an easy and affordable one for our customers to make," said Brian Hayduk, president of First Choice Power. "To further show our support for the Texas environment, we have partnered with the Arbor Day Foundation to plant 10 trees on behalf of each customer to help replenish forests destroyed by wildfires."

First Choice Power Simply Better Renewable Plan is one the lowest priced renewable energy plans available throughout Texas. By purchasing renewable energy, First Choice Power and its customers are able to utilize Texas wind power and other renewable resources; thereby helping to decrease the amount of energy produced by natural gas and fossil fuels.

"First Choice Power's commitment to plant trees in our nation's forests will add enormous benefits by cleaning the air and waterways and by enhancing habitat for wildlife," said John Rosenow, chief executive of the Arbor Day Foundation. "We are grateful for First Choice Power's commitment to the environment."

To match customers' support of the environment by purchasing renewable energy, First Choice Power will donate to the Arbor Day Foundation Reforestation campaign. For each new customer who signs up for one of First Choice Power's 100 percent renewable energy price plans April 20-30, First Choice Power will plant 10 trees on their behalf. It's one of the ways First Choice Power is celebrating Earth Day and Arbor Day.
