Californians To Receive Hotcoldwetdry Rebates

This isn’t satire, but it should be

(Grist) The state’s cap-and-trade program has raised nearly $1.7 billion so far. About 40 percent of proceeds are earmarked to be spent on clean energy initiatives, while the rest will be distributed to small utility customers through various programs, helping offset any increase in electricity prices. Residential customers of the state’s investor-owned utilities, which together serve more than two-thirds of the state’s electricity, will receive the first California Climate Credits on this month’s electricity bills, reducing the amount due by roughly $30 to $40. The next residential credits will be paid out in October. Small business customers will receive them monthly.

So they pass a law that artificially raised people’s power bill, and essentially everything else, all for a fake issue, and are going to get a tiny rebate for the economic pain.

Sadly, Grist’s article on massaging fish is neither satire nor for April Fool’s Day.
