Megan Matson of Mainstreet Moms makes the case for Marin Clean Energy and wonders why PG&E is spending so much money to stop it. Could it be the 'threat of a good example?' If locally-mandated, Community Choice Clean Energy legislation catches on across the country, monopolistic private energy utilities, pushing dirty power - like PG&E - will be feeling the pinch on their bottom lines. This is not just about historically trend-setting Marin County. This is about the potential for a nation-wide, grassroots-up push for a democratically-mandated, sustainable, clean-energy-fueled, post-carbon future.Marin's bottom-up community choice energy campaign is the Front Line of the locally-motivated, clean power evolution.' That's why corporate monopoly forces - let by PG&E (Pacific Gas and Electric) - want to kill it as a democratically-mandated option. This spring, they're launching a well-funded initiative to do just that.... Dozens of citizens' organizations are moving in response. Can California be the cutting edge of the clean energy evolution?
