LA Plans to Eliminate Coal from Power Sources

"The move we are taking in this change is the most dramatic move of any city in the U.S.," said Ronald O. Nichols, general manager of Los Angeles Department of Water and Power.
By 2025, LA plans to eliminate its dependence on coal-fired plants in Utah and Arizona.
