Katie Blume, CVPA’s Political and Legislative Director, thought the ordinance seemed reasonable.

“The ability for a municipality to outright ban something isn’t there. But with the ordinance, as I read it, it’s very similar to a model ordinance that was put out by PennFuture.”

Tell DEP: Don’t let Shell increase pollution in our communities DEP is accepting public comments on this proposal until April 17 — and they need to hear from you. Will you take a minute to tell DEP to reject Shell’s request to increase pollution?

Shell’s Beaver County plant already exceeds pollution limits—and now it wants to pollute even more.

Communities nearby are already facing serious health impacts.

Public comments are open until April 17. Tell PA DEP: deny this permit! https://loom.ly/oP28mQU

We're running ads to demand they lower our costs. They need to hear from everyone that we can't afford a 13% increase - let alone whatever they have planned next. bsky.app/profile/lcv....

PA is one of the biggest energy producers in the country…and we’re still at 3% renewable energy.

We deserve better. 35% clean energy is within reach and it would mean lower costs and a stronger grid. https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTkDwRxgG/
