California is on fire, which is not uncommon, and the dominant energy company in the state, PG&amp;E, is making things worse, which is also not uncommon.Most people that have to interact with PG&amp;E despise PG&amp;E, the investor-owned utility that has been disinvesting California's energy infrastructure while failing to divest from fossil fuels. When it comes to vesting, these guys are doing it all wrong.We're joined (again) by Johanna Bozuwa, an environmental justice activist and co-manager of the Climate &amp; Energy Program at the Democracy Collaborative to discuss what to do with PG&amp;E. (Spoilers: we want to seize it, democratize it, and transform it.)It's a good one!If you enjoy this episode (and we hope you do!), consider giving to Future Left at www.patreon.com/futureleftReading List:https://www.nytimes.com/2019/10/28/us/san-jose-pge-sam-liccardo.htmlhttps://cleantechnica.com/2019/10/28/as-california-burns-clean-energy-advocates-urge-an-end-to-investor-owned-utilities/https://www.teenvogue.com/story/public-utilities-energy-gridhttps://inthesetimes.com/article/22112/pge-utilities-power-california-public-ownership-camp-fire-wildfireshttps://jacobinmag.com/2019/08/bernie-sanders-green-new-deal-electricity-production-energy-gridhttps://inthesetimes.com/features/green-new-deal-solar-power-local-control.htmlhttps://psmag.com/economics/could-california-take-public-ownership-of-pge

Ep. 144: RIPG&E (Ft. Johanna Bozuwa)

This week on Future Left, we're joined by Johanna Bozuwa to discuss the Green New Deal aka FULL-BLOWN SOCIALISM. Johanna is a program associate at The Democracy Collaborative that works on energy democracy. She is also a bad-ass Steward for the good ol' union that enjoys spending her free time taking long walks down to the hill to shout at Corey Booker and organizing with 350 DC.This episode has it all: hissing at rich people because they exploit workers and rig the economy, hissing at rich people because they are threatening to make life on earth impossible for most living creatures, and of course, hissing at rich people because they are just bad in a general sense as well. But in all seriousness, we're talking about the Green New Deal and why system change has to be at the heart of all climate action.Enjoy!Full reading list at www.futureleft.org.
