Fear not Bonnie! The first step is being informed, and you are already there. There may not be official resistance in Alabama yet, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t lots of people like you wanting to take action. I highly recommend getting a copy of the film “Take Back Your Power” and organizing screenings in your area, even if it’s just with a few neighbors. Once you have one or two people willing to help you organize, you can plan a bigger screening at your library or church or community center. It actually doesn’t take much to pull off a screening. The film is a great tool that reaches a lot of different people, I urge you to use it. Get email addresses and phone numbers for everyone you talk to who cares. That’s how it starts.

You can order the film, as well as printed materials from this site (see sidebar) and you can get help with promotional materials for your screenings, too. At the beginning of this movement in California, where I live, there was a lot of door-to-door, speaking to people at farmer’s markets, churches, letters to the editor etc. Eventually, those of us wanting to stop smart meters found each other and together we made great strides. It took time and energy, but it sure beats sitting at home being afraid. And I have met some of the most wonderful, hard-working, principled people from all across the political spectrum through this movement. Friends for life.

It’s easy to feel afraid. These are indeed scary times. However, once we begin to take action (no matter the issue) we start feel better. Empowered. Connected. Capable. We will win this! My mother taught me that the truth always floats to the surface, that’s its very nature. In the meantime, we just need to help it along and inform everyone we can of this criminal trespass on our health and basic rights. Good luck! You can do it!

In reply to wm. PSREC's "agreement" would have required us to agree to the fees and waive our first amendment rights. Not agreeing to that. PSREC needs to turn on our power and drop the fees.

publish an ad back in the paper, flyers about what the community should know about PSREC – include the video link?
we’ll help donate if you need it.

PSREC legally already has violated quite a few laws.
they are no different nor better than SCE, PG&E.

http://www.residocracy.org
(residents of a city-town so tired of the corruption within their businesses, corporations tied to their city council – that they formed their own
governing council)

“Residocracy.org was born in Santa Monica in 2014 to address the overwhelming lack of concern shown by the elected officials in City Hall towards issues and concerns important to Residents.”

can we set an intention and get more free markets for locally sourced energy? can you imagine each neighborhood
managing their own energy resource and no longer dependent on dirty petrol, oil and dirty electricity — honoring the right to choose solar, wind, geothermal, hemp, free energy, etc.

no longer harming people and life around the world to get energy?
if the people want it, they can have it

SCE, PGE, pseudo-“co-ops” like PSREC do not represent or reflect
freedom or the needs of the Community anymore. it’s time to move on.

So, the Portola Non-Reporter Editor basically left out all pertinent facts of the article. Well, they’re following a proud tradition that the pushers of “smart” meters have set: Don’t tell people what the facts are because, if they find out, they will unequivocally reject what is being sold to them!

Keep up the great work, Josh, and we look forward to having you speak in Savannah next month (Coastal Georgia Center, Savannah, Georgia, Thursday, April 3rd, 6 p. m.). You are really an amazing person, and this safe energy movement is lucky to have you in our midst!
