Fed up with $$$$ energy bills? So are we...

SoCal Edison made $4.9 billion in profits, up 200%, while Californians struggle to keep up with sky-high electric rates.

Join us in Irvine on March 26 to demand accountability. #StopUtilityGreed

SoCal families quickly fall behind as utility profits jump as much as 200% 👇

These headlines shouldn't be normal.

That's why we're working quickly to create clean air zones in and around our classrooms.

San Diego County expands household appliance exchange program to meet climate goals An initiative to give low-income residents new energy efficient appliances is expanding in San Diego County. The program supports greenhouse gas reduction goals established by the county’s latest Climate Action Plan.

Great news: San Diego County voted to add $500K to expand the state’s Equitable Building Decarbonization program, bringing no-cost electric appliances to more low-income families.

California regulators have a choice: protect families or send more money to Wall Street shareholders.

Today we rallied at SCAQMD to ask the board to clean up industrial pollution in 2026. Why? Bc air in the South Coast region is still the dirtiest in the nation 😱. 17 million people are paying the price. Industrial boilers are a major cause. Learn more:

Where Is Irvine’s Climate Action Plan? After four years of debates and assurances that it’s in the works, city leaders still haven’t established a plan to address climate change.

“We need a CAAP now. We need it to protect Irvine families and ensure an affordable future for people in this city. Every year, it becomes more apparent how the lack of a Climate Action and Adaptation Plan is hurting our city.” — Tomas Castro

We're just getting started!

Huge thanks to all of our incredible activists who spoke up in support of affordability 💛

For months, we’ve been pushing our region to back these reforms.

Thanks to the momentum we built — with 3 SoCal cities and San Diego County on board — Climate Action Campaign was invited to today’s signing ceremony 🙌

Nicole at the ceremony 👇

We did it 👏
Today, @cagovernornewsom.bsky.social
signed a historic affordability package that will slash energy bills and hold utilities accountable.

This is the biggest step to fix California’s rigged energy system in over a decade. ⚡️

Honored to be recognized for a decade of climate action by the City of San Diego! TY @joelacavad1.bsky.social @seanelorivera.bsky.social @kentleesd.bsky.social for leading this recognition 💚

We're excited for state leaders to finish the job: asmtasha.bsky.social, asmchrisward.bsky.social, asmlashae.bsky.social, davidalvarezca.bsky.social, asmdarshana.bsky.social, senakilahweber.bsky.social

You want lower bills. So do we.

Right now, California has the chance to cut energy costs and hold monopoly utilities accountable.

But we need to act fast. We need your voice—today.

Thx to KPBS for this story and including us! It is political capitulation not to build near this trolley stop. @sdclimateaction.bsky.social also supports SB 79 for exactly this reason. Helping families find housing they can afford near transit they can use is a crucial climate solution!

Buena Park just said YES to lower energy bills 🙌 Capping profits and putting people before utilities. Who’s next? ⚡

Can you believe it's been 10 years of @sdclimateaction.bsky.social?

Join us at our 10th Anniversary Celebration to honor all we've done & recommit to the work ahead 💙

We'd love to celebrate with you; buy your ticket ➡️ climateactioncampaign.org/10th-anniversary

Huge thank you to the San Diego City Council for supporting this package of state bills and working to increase affordability, and to all of our incredible community partners who continue to show up for San Diegans 💚

Mikey Knab: "This is not just unfair or unjust, it’s unsustainable.

I want to thank City Council for supporting this package. This is good for business. It’s good for the planet. And it’s good for the future of San Diego."

"Investor-owned utilities like SDG&E...funnel these profits into bloated executive salaries, shareholder dividends, and stock buybacks, rather than investing back into communities they serve." - Mikey Knab with Business for Good

Natasha Salgado with City Heights CDC: "When families have to choose between rent and keeping the lights on, eviction becomes an all-too-real outcome.

Nearly 1 in 4 San Diegans are behind on their utility bills, therefore this is a regional emergency."

"We are here today because families across San Diego are being absolutely crushed by a cost-of-living crisis.
Sky-high energy bills are pushing far too many to the brink." - Natasha Salgado with City Heights CDC

"We must stand with working people, not the utility executives who are getting rich while other folks suffer. We must demand a future where affordable energy is a right, not just a luxury." - @seanelorivera.bsky.social

@seanelorivera.bsky.social: "For years, we’ve heard about families in City Heights, Stockton, Mount Hope, and other parts of the city who are making impossible choices between keeping the lights on and putting food on the table.

This isn’t about politics. It’s about dignity and economic survival."

"Here is why this is so important: San Diegans and Californians are being ripped off," said
@seanelorivera.bsky.social. "We pay the highest electricity rates in the country, all while Sempra and SDG&E rake in billions in profits and thousands of our neighbors fall further behind on their bills."
