It's Not Just California
I recently addressed the City Council, Mayor and interested citizens in Athens and several major Ohio cities, where interest in Local Power's municipal approach to Climate Protection and energy security has a powerful audience. I worked with Citizen Action, Harvey Wasserman and others to win a Community Choice law in 1999, resulting in the largest CCA in the nation - NOPEC (not OPEC), the Northeast Ohio Public Energy Council, has served some two million Ohioans, and a number of communities and state leaders, including Ohio Ratepayer Advocate Janine Migden (sister of California CCA law sponsor Carole Migden), are very interested in using CCA to accelerate green power development. Video of my presentation is available on youtube - just click on the image.
