December 10th, 6p - Slowing Bay Area's Rush Towards Natural Gas! (RSVP)
Dave Room
The LCEA has open meetings on the second Thursday of every month, featuring informative speakers on renewable energy, energy efficiency, and related efforts.
The
next meeting of alliance is December 10th at 6p and will feature a talk on the Bay Area's rush to Natural Gas.
PG&E is far behind on their renewable targets, while at the same time proposing new, high-capacity natural gas power plants in the Bay Area. The result is an increased reliance on fossil fuels, more greenhouse gas emissions, and public health threats in disadvantaged communities. Outside of California, there is a push for more natural gas drilling in the Rockies as well as LNG import terminals in Oregon and Mexico. Communities, however, are fighting back. In the last few years, community and environmental justice organizations have used air pollution laws and energy analysis to win the rejection of several new power plants. We can do it here!
WHEN: October 8, 6-8 pm
WHERE: Central Historic Building, 436 14th St.
2nd Floor Conference Room, Oakland
(Just up the stairs from the 12th St. BART station)
