NYCers: Con Edison's Offer To Sell Us Wind Power
I'm all for it if it's on the up and up, and willing to pay the approx. $10. more a month. But I don't trust that company any more than I would a rabid rat, so what I'm asking is, is this real or will they finagle a way to sell us electricity for more but be less than circumspect on the green side?

1. well considering their is no agency that really
provides oversight into corporate green policies their is no way to be sure, i am sure some companies will use this fact to their advantage.

5. my belief would be that ConEd
does not exactly have the consumers' best interests at heart.

and we've got mondo wind farms out here and i don't see my PG&E bill going down.

make your conclusions.
