I am closing ALL of my BofA accounts this month. I am so excited to see momentum build towards a truly green economy that I am no longer willing to do business with companies slowing the move to a green economy. I will spend my money only with those companies willing to lead the way. Any company that finances or otherwise assists the coal industry WILL NOT GET ANY OF MY BUSINESS. This is my small part to shift the tide from an economic standpoint. Oh, yeah. I'm installing solar PV panels on my house to show my local utility company where I want my money spent! I am sizing my new solar array to accommodate the plug-in electric (or possibly hybrid) car that I'll be purchasing in 2010. Let's see if the US car companies decide to get in on the green economy...
