The bad news: Far from being a leader, Virginia lags behind much of the rest of the country in getting rid of coal and moving to a clean energy future. Dominion Resources continues to stymie efforts to move the commonwealth (Richmond is not only the state capitol, it is also the asthma capitol) to greater use of wind and solar energy. Placing profits above people, the powerful company is aided and abetted by failed leadership in the Executive Mansion and General Assembly.
Get involved: Contact your state legislators and tell them it is time, indeed past time, to move Virginia towards clean and renewable energy. Join the Sierra Club Beyond Coal campaign

Your blog is so great... I feel like we must have met at some point, though your blog gives no clues as to your identity. But I am also in Virginia and directed a Clean Air Defense Campaign office for the Sierra Club last year... Now I am on the Board for the Chesapeake Bay Group. Whoever you are, keep up the good work, and keep fighting! :)
