Hey , how much will continuing to run the Kingston and Cumberland coal plants cost us? Because scrapping your plans to retire these aging, dirty coal plants AND bringing methane gas powered electricity generation online at the same sites seems expensive to me. đŸ€”

You’ve long said that these coal plants have become costly and less reliable to keep operating. That’s partly why you justified putting pipelines in people’s backyards and building new multi-million dollar gas plants. Now, you’ve cut the public out and broken your commitments. And we still don’t know the price tag because there is no cost transparency.

đŸš«Hardworking people and families shouldn’t have to pay more to keep these expensive plants online when there are more affordable and reliable options.
đŸš«Survivors and families of Kingston coal ash disaster workers deserve better.
đŸš«Nearby communities shouldn’t have to keep suffering from air and water pollution caused by burning dirty coal.
đŸš«Communities across the Tennessee Valley don’t want to risk grid outages during the next winter storm because of reliability problems at these old plants.

TVA, show us the bill.

Get your ticket today at reclaimtheridge.eventbrite.com

“The Local Honeys come from a long line of storytellers, a lineage of strong Kentucky women that aren’t afraid to tell it like it is and their self-titled La Honda debut is proof it’s in their bones. The duo have mastered the art of telling a good story. The narratives and landscapes they weave into song, the deep understanding and love they share for old time traditions, their undeniable charisma and charm, and their blatant disregard to follow the rules make it clear the duo is poised to become not only the defining voices of their home state of Kentucky but the defining voices of a new Appalachia.” (From their website)

“I was taking that perspective [of being a community organizer] to people who have very real power to make the decisions that I rally communities to support or oppose.” -Erin Walker (SAGE TN)

This trip was a great opportunity to expand how SAGE TN advocates for environmental justice in the Upper Cumberland. Our communities couldn’t show up to tell their stories and it was an honor to be bring these unique perspectives to our lawmakers in DC.

Thank you socmtn and alliance4appalachia for this opportunity.

Wednesday August 20th from 2-4pm, the TVA will be hosting a listening session ahead of their board meeting on the 21st. This listening session will be held at the TVA headquarters in Knoxville, TN . Although, the TVA Board does not have the required headcount to make quorum, right now is an important time to have our voices heard as the TVA faces the existential threat of privatization. Something that they’ve been fighting since their founding, history repeats and it’s our turn to rise to the occasion and hopefully we repeat history by keeping the TVA publicly owned.
