For every mile of gas pipeline replaced, Washington Gas passes the cost to consumers. Already, 1 in 7 residents are behind on their gas bills, with Washington Gas shutting off service to nearly 3,000 customers in 2024. Take action: act.chesapeakeclimate.org/page/86792/p...

Washington Gas wants to charge residents 215$ mil, on top of the 13% rate hike they received last month, for #ProjectPipes instead of fixing leaks. Residents have packed the room and are demanding that the PSC put people over corporations. #EnvironmentalJustice #PeopleOverPolluters

A watchdog for PJM, the mid-Atlantic electricity grid Virginia, warns that new data centers could overwhelm VA' power systems, urging FERC to make #PJM stop plugging in #DataCenters until more generation and transmission are online. @richmond.com story: richmond.com/news/state-r... #CleanEnergy⁠⁠

While the state agency that oversees utilities regrettably approved the project, Dominion still cannot build this plant without an air permit.

Now it’s up to the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality to get this decision right on Wednesday, Dec. 10, at 5 p.m.

Maryland is already paying the price of the climate crisis with flooded streets, deadly heat, and toxic smoke, while fossil fuel giants count record profits. Lawmakers must override the veto of the #RENEWAct.
