Tax credits for green technology is a great idea. Providing incentives makes it easier for taxpayers to afford the latest green technologies that can help reduce carbon emissions and other forms of pollution.

We cannot, however, forget that some old technologies are the greenest. The U.S. needs to offer tax credits for bikes as well as hybrid cars and energy efficient appliances. This will not only make bikes more affordable for the average consumer, but will show that the government has dedicated itself to promoting green initiatives rather than the latest technology trends.

Let your representatives in Congress know that you want a tax credit for the next bike that you purchase. After all, they produce zero carbon emissions and can help keep people healthy.

The Petition

Congress,

We support providing tax incentives to consumers who invest in green technologies. Hybrid vehicles, energy efficient appliances, and other green technology applications are a great way to make our planet a healthier place to live.

Congress should, however, also consider tax incentives that will encourage people to use green technologies that were developed centuries. This is why we support a tax credit for new and used bike purchases.

Bikes are the ultimate in green technology. They provide technology without creating any harmful emissions. Plus, they encourage people to get more exercise, which could have a positive effect on the state of our economy by reducing health care expenses.

We believe that Congress should continue to support new green technologies, but we also believe that it should show its commitment to environmental protection by offer tax incentives to individuals who choose zero emission transportation options that do not make use of the latest trends in technology.

Thank you,

Zero Emission Supporters
