Whoever stops to think about DWP? As you noted, only when something goes wrong. Thanks for bringing this to attention. I’d like to see more articles about DWP, Edison, SDGE and climate. Happy to support your work.
Janisse Quiñones is an inspiration, thanks for featuring her and DWP. I hope she's successful in Puerto Rico. Despite their grid's issues and the country's recurring national disasters, she'll probably have an easier time there than navigating Los Angeles and DWP!
As you write, Sammy, climate is the nexus of utilities, housing, cost of living, economic development, and politics. I would be curious about a regional take on the climate position of utilities. For example, there is a grassroots effort in San Diego to have a public power authority replace SDGE, which charges one of the highest residential rates in the country, I believe. A look at how the different entities in SoCal are or are not advancing regional climate action, and what residents and ratepayers want, could be eye opening.

Thank you very much for your support! Happy to be of service. I hope to write much more about DWP and all the other utilities.
