Access to sources of heat, light, and water are vital necessities and have been considered sacred in cultures across the globe and throughout time. ​Now, in many places, these critical resources are controlled by private, for-profit corporations that place the interest of their shareholders over their obligation to provide affordable, reliable service to their ratepayers.
​We are urging the New Orleans City Council to declare utility access a human right and to adopt policies – such as a prohibition on residential disconnections for inability to pay – that protect our communities. ​
​Energy Future New Orleans (EFNO) is a coalition of diverse people and organizations dedicated to making New Orleans an equitable and renewable energy city for present and future generations. Learn more at efno.org.
