Dear Barbara,
San Diego Gas and Electric
(SDG&E) is
determined to keep
California shackled to dirty energy at the
expense of the environment,
our pocket
books and our clean energy future.
Californians are working
aggressively to develop our greatest clean
energy resource, sunshine,
and we're seeing the
enormous benefits locally and across the
state from it. But
now San Diego Gas &
Electric wants to build two new dirty gas
plants in San Diego that we
don't even
need.
In the next month the
California Public Utilities Commission
(CPUC) will decide whether to
approve
SDG&E's request to build these dirty
plants -- and you can help
stop them.
Tell the CPUC to
deny the request to build new gas
plants in San Diego.
California's future
rests on the
shoulders of clean energy not natural
gas.
Clean energy is creating tens
of thousands of clean energy jobs, cleaner
air and local economic
development. Since 2010, jobs in the solar
industry grew at a rate of
13% across
the country, compared with just 3% for the
rest of the economy.
Send
a message to the CPUC and tell them that
you want California to invest
in clean
energy, not dirty gas.
Time again the San Diego Chapter of the
Sierra Club has
beat back SDG&E locally including the
Quail Brush Plant. But
SDG&E won't stop trying to get their way
at the CPUC. But if we
defeat SDG&E now it will set a precedent
that Californians don't
need to power our homes and businesses with
out-dated dirty fossil fuels anymore and
help protect communities
across the state from attempts by big
utilities to build dirty energy
plants. Let's stop solving 21st
century problems
with 20th century solutions.
Tell
the CPUC to deny SDG&E's permits
to build two new power plants in
San
Diego.
Thanks for all you do for the environment,
Beth and John Frice -- Volunteer
Leaders
