A group of #ClimateStrike activists dropped a banner over the entrance to the Consolidated Edison Headquarters in downtown Manhattan on September 24, 2019, with the message "Con Ed's Rate Hike Plan Fails the Climate Test. #Climate Strike Utilities". This is one act in a growing movement directed at corporate utilities that are abusing their monopoly status to raise already exorbitant rates, and use that money to fund massive expansions of fracked gas pipelines, liquefied natural gas storage tanks, and other fracked gas support infrastructure throughout New York City and New York State.
