Rally for a Coal-Free Community

press release; It is time for Madison to pave the way and become a coal-free community. Right now, our “community energy company” MGE is 63% coal-powered. This impacts the air quality for all Wisconsinites and exacerbates climate change. Our energy is having a direct negative health impact on the families, and especially the children, living near the coal plants in Oak Creek and Portage. Join us on May 12, the weekend before MGE’s annual shareholders’ meeting, for a family-friendly rally to stand up for kids, climate and health!
