Philadelphia and Pennsylvania governments both have important decisions to make about our energy future. Should we continue the path we’ve trodden for decades or should we find a way to help citizens have reliable clean energy that doesn’t add to climate change?

Tune in to Planet Philadelphia 4-5 pm Friday 5/3/19 on WGGT-LP 92.9 FM Germantown Community Radio and streaming at gtownradio.com.
