"Duke Energy's Asheville coal plant is the largest single source of carbon pollution in Western North Carolina, and a major cause of climate disruption. There is a vast support in our community for transitioning off coal as a means of lessening our contribution to climate change and protecting our air and water from the impacts of pollution from the coal plant. Over 5,000 people have signed petitions supporting these goals and, last year, the Asheville City Council voted unanimously for a resolution calling on Duke Energy to transition off of fossil fuels and onto clean energy."
