We believe Consumers Energy should invest in clean alternative energy, not another unneeded coal plant!
As ratepayers and concerned citizens, we strongly urge you to stop your plans to build a new unneeded coal plant in Michigan that will cost us ratepayers billions of dollars and our state thousands of clean energy jobs.
Moving beyond coal is one of the most important steps in the fight against global warming. Coal plants are major contributors to climate change, mercury contamination of our waterways and food supply, and highly destructive coal mining practices like mountaintop removal.
To benefit your customers, shareholders, and the environment, we urge you to stop your plans to build new coal plants and instead dramatically increase investments in renewable energy and increased energy efficiency. Wind and solar power, combined with energy efficiency programs, can provide clean energy to meet our needs while reducing Consumers Energy’s role in the destruction of people’s lives and livelihoods.
You have an opportunity to be a leader and to provide thousands of good-paying clean energy jobs for Michigan’s workers. Put an end to your proposed coal plant today.
