SUMMARY:Austin Energy Utility Oversight Committee Meeting Gathering
DESCRIPTION:From the Austin People’s Climate Mobilization Team\, 350 Austin\, and Public Citizen Texas –\nWe are gathering to demand that city council adopts these ideas and takes strong action to act on climate and make Austin CARBON FREE BY 2030!\n—-Retire Fayette Coal Plant in 2022\n—-Retire Decker Gas Plant in 2020\n—-75% Renewable by 2027\n————————–————————–————————–———-Plan:\n9am orientation in lobby\n9:25am walk into meeting\n9:30am-noon Committee Meeting \nWEAR GREEN & BRING SIGNS and/or posterboard to make signs there! \nClimate change impacts (like people being displaced from their homes due to flooding)\, air pollution and people struggling to pay their bills are serious problems in our community. The update to the Austin Energy Resource\, Generation and Climate Protection Plan (Austin’s long-range energy plan) is an opportunity to address all of these issues. We support a clean\, just and affordable energy future. To ensure Austin is a leader on climate justice\, we urge you to adopt a plan that prioritizes the retirement of the Fayette coal plant in 2022 and Decker gas plant in 2020\, and expands renewable energy\, local solar\, energy efficiency and energy storage goals to put the utility on a path to be 100% carbon-free by 2030. The plan should also make local solar more accessible to low-income residents and renters to improve equity and provide much needed bill relief.

SUMMARY:Austin People's Climate March Planning Meeting
DESCRIPTION:A massive march for action on climate change is in the works. A People’s Climate March has been planned in Washington D.C for Saturday\, April 29th (marking 100 days of Donald Trump’s presidency). The march is being organized by the same coalition that emerged after the 2014 People’s Climate March\, which was held in advance of the UN Climate Summit and brought together 400\,000 people in the streets of New York City. It was the largest climate march in history. \nNow\, activists are trying to do it all again… except even bigger. They’re joining together with other movements fighting for the rights of women\, immigrants\, indigenous peoples\, workers\, and people of color. \nAlong with the signature march in DC\, dozens of sister marches are also being held across the country\, including in Austin. \n“We are one earth\, one people\, one community\,” says the Austin People’s Climate March Facebook page. “We demand: slashed greenhouse gases\, a clean energy economy\, and climate justice. People of central Texas will unite to stand up for our communities and climate.” \nIf you’d like to be involved in helping to organize the march\, their next meeting is on Monday\, March 13th from 6:30pm to 9pm at the offices of Public Citizen on East 11th Street. More info>>
