WHAT: IBEW 569 Electricians – RALLY for Green Union Jobs and 100% Renewable Energy!
WHERE: Meet and Rally at the San Diego County Operations Center (5520 Overland Ave, San Diego, CA 92123)
WHEN: 4:00 – 4:45 PM on Thursday, March 23rd. At 4:45 we will march to the SDCP Board of Directors meeting (approximately a 5-minute walk).
WHY: From rising seas to rising temperatures, the climate crisis has hit San Diego County, but on March 23rd we can hit back, with your help! County Supervisor Terra Lawson-Remer and Imperial Beach Mayor Paloma Aguirre are calling on our region’s power provider, San Diego Community Power, to adopt a binding legal commitment to provide 100% of our local energy from clean, renewable sources by 2035.
Right now, 100% renewable by 2035 is a “goal” that SDCP says it will try to achieve, if feasible. But we all know what happens to lofty goals when the going gets tough…. With the climate crisis at our doorstep, we need binding commitments like these to ensure no more time is wasted.
