Move Austin Beyond Coal!

RECEIVED Fri., Nov. 20, 2009

Dear Editor,
    Thank you, Nora Ankrum, for comprehensively covering the efforts to move Austin beyond coal [“AE's Coal Conundrum,” News, Nov. 20]. Sierra Club and our environmental and bicycling community partners were delighted with the turnout and unity behind the Roll Beyond Coal message at our rally on Oct. 31. Sierra Club is committed to getting Austin off coal as soon as possible. We are working in Austin neighborhoods through weatherization workshops to make Austin homes as energy-efficient as possible. Sierra Club fully supports on-site solar power as soon as possible on rooftops of Austin government buildings, businesses, schools, churches, homes, and parking garages. We believe Austin can do it. Austin can roll beyond coal. We are one of the first cities in the U.S. leading the way to clean power, green jobs, and clean air.
