Hi ,

I just signed a petition opposing Airtel's use of dirty diesel energy to
power their cell phone towers.

Please read the mail below and take action.

Dear friends,

Thanks to the telecommunications sector, every new call and SMS is hurting
our environment. Lakhs of massive mobile network towers in our country run
on dirty diesel.

Airtel is the market leader and trend-setter of the Indian telecom industry.
If we get them to switch to renewable energy, it will set an example for the
others to follow. Customers are the mainstay of this industry. Airtel would
notice if customers ask them to make their calls green by using clean energy
to power company's mobile towers.

You should ask Airtel to switch to renewable energy.

Several current and potential Airtel subscribers, asking them to switch to
renewable energy will help put pressure on them to act. Since the company is
bound to provide good service to its subscribers, they will not be able to
ignore this feedback. 

Like coal and nuclear, oil too is an unsustainable energy option. The
Deepwater Horizon oil spill last year showed the dangers of our addiction to
oil.[2] Studies conducted by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change
have shown that renewable energy is capable of powering the world.[3] Airtel
needs to realise this and quit dirty energy. 

Tell them now.
