Our Public Service Commissioners will be making decisions on our energy mix this week. We need you to help them understand that the burning of fossil fuels is NOT safe for our patients.
​
Hi, Georgia healthcare workers.
We need help advocating for clean energy this week that is kind of urgent for a hearing that starts March 25th.
​
Background: The public service commission regulates how the power company generates electricity in GA for the next 15-20 years. They are likely planning to slow down coal retirement and continue to build more fossil gas infrastructure. We need healthcare workers to advocate for clean energy for the health of our patients during this hearing period.
​
It takes 5-10 minutes. Best do this from a laptop or desktop.

Start with your title or role. I live and work in Georgia. I have not been paid to make this comment. I am concerned that the continued burning of fossil fuels (including methane gas), and biomass is NOT SAFE for my patients. Both cause air pollution and climate change. I see patients with the following conditions: , which are made worse by climate change.
-
Then PLEASE PLEASE give an example of a patient story of any condition impacted by climate change (see WHO figure for a reminder below).
-
Include some suggested language from the website link if you want.
-
If you have another 5 minutes, PLEASE ask other healthcare workers to do the same!! The healthcare voice is super helpful. We will be having someone compile the comments later to emphasize how many comments are made.
​
Thank you so much for taking action and making a difference!
​
This is a numbers game. The more comments, the more impact! Let's get the message across! Ask 3 other healthcare workers to do the same!!
