Call on the Sweetwater Union High School District to Go Fossil-Free and Electrify Everything!
Call on the Sweetwater Union High School District (SUHSD) to prioritize students' health and safeguard our future by committing to a fossil free SUHSD and electrifying all district infrastructure by 2030
By going Fossil-Free and electrifying, SUHSD will reduce carbon emissions and air pollutants. District students, who spend 1,000+ hours at school annually, deserve a healthy environment. Securing a just, sustainable future requires combating climate change. Electrifying is a way to get us there, and will also result in lower operating costs.
As students, parents, teachers, and community members, we are calling on SUHSD to pass a resolution committing to:
- Transition rapidly to 100% renewable energy by maximizing on-site solar power generation and utilizing SDCP’s Power100 program.
- Immediately transition to all-electric new construction and electrify existing school buildings and facilities.
- Transition to all-electric school buses.
- Develop a Green Jobs curriculum.
- Using union certified labor.
Schools should be preparing students for a healthy, successful future, not putting their future at risk. It is vital that Sweetwater Union High School District champion this important climate solution to ensure a livable world for its students and pass this resolution now.
