Special Meeting called meeting to vote on the future of the JK Spruce coal plant and future energy generation. Details Here.
December 19, 2022, Agenda (PDF)
On Monday, board members received the future energy generation recommendation from the Rate Advisory Committee. RAC members were strongly divided on their recommendation: 13 members recommending a pathway supposed to hit our 2030 carbon-reductions target (but failing 2040 and 2050) by swapping out coal for gas; seven members voted instead for plans much stronger on renewable energy.
BACKGROUND: Read Deceleration’s report:
“CPS Energy’s Rate Committee Readies Recommendation to Swap Out Coal for Gas.”
LIVESTREAM: Catch meetings online here.
PUBLIC COMMENT: Requests to make public comments must be received the week before the meeting (ie. Wedesday to Friday). Details at the CPS Energy Public Comment FAQ page.
SEE: Deceleration’s CPS Energy Resource Page for more about the utility.

We need urgent action to address the climate crisis, but the fossil fuel industry continues to put profits first. Join us on Tuesday, January 31 from 7:00-8:00 pm ET (4:00-5:00 pm PT) for an exclusive conversation with Nathaniel Rich, author of Losing Earth: A Recent History for a look back at the history of the climate movement.
Losing Earth tells the story of a group of scientists, politicians, and strategists who sounded the alarm about the climate crisis and those who pushed back. By exploring the beginning of climate denialism, this insightful book shows how the fossil fuel industry weakens climate policy through misinformation and political influence.
The urgency of the climate crisis has only increased. So, where do we go from here?Join this discussion with author Nathaniel Rich about our recent history and how we can move forward toward a better future. Plus, join live for a chance to win your own copy of Losing Earth!
Food & Water Watch builds grassroots power to stand up against the oil and gas industry and fight for meaningful change. Together, we can bring people together to fight the fossil fuel industry and press our leaders to pass laws that protect our planet.

San Antonio’s Parks and Public Works departments are determined to restore or recreate historic features at Brackenridge Park within a new development vision, including a performance plaza. Their vision, however, has run into extended controversy over their claimed needs to remove towering heritage trees from the San Antonio River’s headwaters and forcefully evict migratory birds from the park. Though caught lying repeatedly on key elements of the bond-funded project, COSA staff have persevered and are are now taking their proposal for the first phase of the project to the Texas Historical Commission for state approval. Roughly 50 trees would be removed to make way in this first phase, including some towering oaks.
Item 3.2 on the Feb. 1 THC agenda here.

This conversation on Buddhism and Ecology addresses the notions of wild and rewilding from both internal and external perspectives; how can wildness be understood in relation to contemplative practice, as cultivation of the wilderness around us and a felt sense of the wild in ourselves? The conversation draws from the work of Gary Snyder, an award-winning writer, environmentalist, and Buddhist practitioner, and by using visual prompts from Kaisu’s environmental art.
Dr. Kaisu Koski is a cross-disciplinary artist with a background in performance, film, and biological materials. She collaborates with scientists, clinicians, and engineers, focusing on the climate crisis, multispecies relationships, and the art-science methodology. Kaisu is an Associate Professor of Art and Design at Lab4Living at Sheffield Hallam University in the UK.

Join us Thursday February 9, for “Walk on the River: A Black History of the Alamo City.” In this independent film we take the time to document both the history and the contributions African-Americans have made to the fabric of San Antonio, Texas from Emancipation to the Civil Rights movement. We chronicle the path of freed Blacks establishing communities, churches and schools in the 1800’s to thriving Black-owned businesses that flourished during the Jim Crow era.
The original Walk on the River, completed in August of 2018 is one of the most successful documentary films in San Antonio, TX. It has helped to educate thousands about the Black Experience here in our city.
We touch on religion, politics, education, social organizations and community all in an attempt to paint a vivid picture of life for Black San Antonians in the past to help create a knowledge base, a sense of pride and a blueprint for the next generations moving forward.
“Walk on the River” features interviews from very influential people in our community like:
