While our fight against coal continues, we're also fighting to bring clean energy to the commonwealth.
The 'Clean Energy Future Act' will usher in a clean energy revolution in Virginia, mandating that we get 20% of our energy from clean sources like wind and solar, and that we reduce our electricity usage by 10%.
Senator Chap Petersen has already introduced the bill, SB 446, now we need a surge of grassroots support to make this groundbreaking piece of legislation a reality.
