Good for MO

-- Amanda Meade -- 09/26/2008

After a hard fought battle over signature verification in Missouri, the Clean Energy Initiative, Proposition C, is on the ballot. Congrats to all who hit the streets and help make it happen.  This is a good step in the right direction as the initiative will shift 15% of electricity to renewables by 2021. The equivilant of taking 2 million cars off the road. The plan has broad support as evidenced in this editorial:

The plan has potential to save Missourians over $300 million in energy costs and create thousands of good paying local jobs. For more detailed information check out www.WorksforMissouri.org

We'll keep you posted on the outcome.
