Mary Anne Hitt, Sierra Club: "The Era of Coal is Over": Los Angeles Will Move Beyond Coal by 2025

Mary Anne Hitt: "The Era of Coal is Over": Los Angeles Will Move Beyond Coal by 2025 

"We applaud Mayor Villaraigosa and the city of Los Angeles for providing visionary leadership, for taking the lead in moving beyond coal, and for bringing clean air and clean energy jobs to one of America's most celebrated cities.
    L.A. is home to a new rooftop solar program--the largest in the nation--and the city has an energy-efficiency program that's been creating jobs while saving residents money and energy. By moving L.A. beyond coal, the city will reduce its dependence on fossil fuels, grow its local economy with new clean-energy jobs, and reduce its carbon footprint."

Extremely meaningful progress, here in LA.
