Care about clean air? How about affordable energy?  Then please join us for…

Citizens for Clean and Fair Power Campaign Kick Off Meeting
Thursday September 19, 7:00-8:00pm

Pembroke Academy Library
209 Academy Rd, Pembroke NH 03275
Refreshments Provided



PSNH’s coal-fired power plant here in Bow is damaging the health and
welfare of communities.  The soot and smog from Merrimack Station lead
to higher rates of asthma and heart attacks.

To add insult to
injury, PSNH’s reliance on outdated, dirty coal plants is making customers right here in the Merrimack Valley, including Bow, Pembroke, Allenstown, Hooksett and Concord areas pay ever-increasing electric

bills.  It’s time for PSNH to stop making us pay to pollute our air and

water.

We can make a difference and bring clean air to the Merrimack Valley.  Come to our kick off meeting to find out how!
The Merrimack Valley should have breathable air and clean, sustainable
energy that fits the scenic and unique character of the area.  Governor
Hassan and our elected officials need support to go toe to toe with
PSNH, a powerful company who has bullied New Hampshire too long for
shareholder profits.

We can win and get these coal plants
responsibly retired and plan for a smooth transition if we build enough
public support- starting here on the Merrimack, where we’ve been
burdened with the coal pollution for decades.  So please join us on Thursday night


Join other concerned residents and local organizations to find out how

to retire Merrimack Station and plan for our sustainable future. RSVP to let us know you can make it, and bring a friend!
