Austin Has A Dirty Secret


by: Chris Searles

Fri Jan 29, 2010 at 01:29 PM CST


Facebook group, "Austin has a Dirty Secret," a local citizen's group pushing for replacing Austin's coal plant at the earliest possible date  - has grown to nearly 800 members in the last few weeks. The group offers this description --

"Austin has a dirty secret" is focused on:

1) Drawing attention to the fact that Austin's coal plant is a clunker (rated#7 worst polluting industrial complex in TX by the TCEQ...)

2) Drawing attention to the fact that keeping the City reliant on said clunker = numerous, high stakes financial risks and negative human impacts

3) Offering quality information about available clean alternatives for Austin rate payers that save money.
