🌎🆕 Climate Correction Podcast Episode! 🌎🔊
➡️ Listen here: https://t.co/O0xatTYkIh ⬅️
What power does the law have to address the #climate crisis? How has the passing of the Inflation Reduction Act impacted the advancement of climate #solutions? Why is #Florida not leading the United States on solar power generation?
To answer these questions and more, we have @Earthjustice on today’s episode of the Climate Correction Podcast.
Big news! NJ's Community Solar program is now a permanent source of local jobs and equitable, clean, affordable solar energy.
Thanks to @NJBPU for its hard work, and to the countless advocates tirelessly pushing for a clean energy transition that won't leave anyone behind.
People who live in "heat island" neighborhoods like Hunting Park are on the front lines of a crisis. https://t.co/wdgtbW0wCt via @PhillyInquirer@aubreyjwhelan@VictoriaKeLi
(Falling to my knees, begging, pleading)
Please.
Folks, seriously.
PLEASE.
Do not - and I can’t emphasize this enough - set the state on fire this weekend.
This by @lyllayounes for @grist details the outcome of a long process shaped by People's Movement Assemblies led by @TaprootEarth and supported by @cpluscp: four reports detailing visions for a reparatory climate politics.

“We are poor people who live in poor neighborhoods. Paying our bills is what consumes us, and many times we come up short. A pay hike is crippling to many of us. It seems like the $ that will be made off of us will hurt us.” A bold and honest testimony by community member @MyPGW
Community member @MitchChanin asks, why are the vast majority of low income residents not enrolled in the CRP program that @MyPGW boasts about? There is a failure of long term planning for clean, affordable energy. PGW is failing Philly residents. #pgw#fossilfuels
“There’s no long term future for fossil fuels in Philadelphia or anywhere else. Our climate can’t afford it” a strong statement by West Philadelphia community member testifying against this rate hike @MyPGW. Where does @PHLCouncil stand on this?
Customer of @MyPGW Nadine Upshaw is asking how #PGW plans to spend the extra 85+ million in revenue that the company will produce from this proposed 10% rate hike. She states, “it seems like PGW is ignoring a rapidly changing market”
The people want renewable energy!
Great testimony by @RevDrCMKimmenez: “an annual increase of $150 can literally make or break our community members who are already having to choose between food and medicine” @MyPGW@PA_PUC
How can you raise our bills when you don’t even have a plan to address the climate emergency caused by fossil fuels you use, @MyPGW? This is outrageous!
