Solar power can go a long way to cleaning up our own energy grid, but it can also improve lives in parts of the world where electricity is minimal, if available at all—not to mention polluting and unhealthy.
Music is a great way to spread the green message, and the electronic quartet BLVD has capitalized on that to help bring solar energy to Africa while bringing awesome music to your ears.
Their mix of hip-hop vocals with house and street beats will make you want to dance. And you should, because when you buy their latest album, Music for People, some of your dollars will support SolarAid, an organization that brings things like solar-powered water pumps to Africa. Or works to replace kerosene lanterns with LED solar lamps, and to improve children's education by providing solar power to kids and schools who might otherwise have to forgo much of would-be study time.
So buy an album and support clean energy in places that need it even more than we do. (And we need it pretty badly.)
