Movie: A Question of Power
"A Question of Power," a one-hour documentary locally produced about SDG&E/Sempra's proposed Sunrise Powerlink and San Diego County's energy future, will be screened in Poway. The documentary takes a hard look at SDG&E's claims regarding this line and the sustainable alternatives that could be San Diego's energy future if this line is defeated. In addition to many local grassroots activists and experts, some local luminaries are featured, including Donna Frye (who winds up the video with her admiration for the grassroots organizing done to oppose this bad idea), Mike Aguirre (San Diego City Attorney who is suing SDG&E for its negligence resulting in fires, and a tremendous advocate for renewable energy generation right here in San Diego, not Imperial County), and Dianne Jacob (SD County Supervisor who has very ably voiced her constituents' opposition to the Sunrise Powerlink in ANY form).
The CA Public Utilities Commission will be deciding in the next two weeks whether California's ratepayers will pay the heavy price in the decades to come for this outmoded and destructive technology. Watch the film and then take action to influence the Commission's decision.
Meetings are free and open to the public. Participation in the meeting raffle is encouraged to help defray costs.
