Glendale City Hall for a rally to stop the Grayson Expansion! More Info: stopgrayson.com/JOIN US on Tuesday, April 10 at 5:30pm at Glendale City Hall for a rally to stop the Grayson Expansion! Immediately after the rally we’re asking Glendale City Council to vote to halt the Grayson Plant expansion and hire independent energy experts to review Glendale’s power needs. We can meet our current and future power needs with clean, renewable energy! Glendale is looking at a $500 million expansion of the Grayson Power Station that will increase emissions by 415,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide annually, increase ozone and particulate pollution, and generate electricity to sell to other cities. This is like adding 90,000 more gas-burning cars to Glendale roads! We have to stop the Grayson Expansion. Their plan is faulty for a number of reasons: it’s bad for our health, it’s financially risky, and they want to pollute locally to power other cities. GWP has only gotten advice from fossil fuel experts who stand to gain financially if the gas project goes forward. They have not looked reasonably at alternatives to fossil fuel power. When : Tue Apr 10, 2018 5:30pm – 9:30pm Pacific Time Where : Glendale City Hall, 613 E Broadway, Glendale, CA 91206, USA

Thanks for posting about Tuesday's rally to stop the expansion of the Grayson Power Plant in Glendale.
More than 200 people demonstrated at Glendale City Hall. After the protest, the City Council voted to put the expansion on hold -- and to start looking at renewable energy alternatives. Here's the story in the Glendale News Press:
