Why we are 350: Scientists generally agree that 350 ppm is the upper limit to sustain life as humans have known it. For 800,000+ years atmospheric CO2 varied between roughly 180 to 280 ppm. We passed 350 ppm about 1988!
- November 28, 2022: 417.31 ppm!
- November 2021: 415.01 ppm

We Energies Rate Case Update

"As is the case with everything these days, something else is getting more expensive: your We Energies bill.

Come January, the average We Energies customer will pay a little more than $12 extra a month for
their electricity. That means budgeting an additional $147 a year.

The average is based on what a typical customer uses a month, which is 660 kWh.

On Thursday, the Public Service Commission approved a 10.9% rate hike for We Energies' residential customers." - WISN

A Teach-in on We Energies, Climate & Racial Equity
Thursday, December 15, 2022 6:00 PM - 7:30 PM CT
Citizen Action of Wisconsin, 4716 W Vliet St

Join Citizen Action members and staff to learn about how We Energies is blocking needed action on the climate crisis and shifting unaffordable utility rates on to low income people of color in Milwaukee. We will learn how Citizen Action members can hold We Energies accountable and use the power of city and state government to build a just and sustainable energy system.

Meet us at the Citizen Action Office or via zoom. Refreshments will be provided and families are welcome. For questions contact Barbara Cerda (Southeast WI) at [email protected] (mailto:[email protected]) or Valerie Ricks (Northside Rising) [email protected] (mailto:[email protected]) .
