In the Season 4 finale of Operation Climate, we continue our deep dive into Duke Energy, a company that controls much of the energy that we use at Duke University. How much power does Duke Energy really have? How can we make sure that they commit to a clean energy shift?
Jillian Riley has been an environmental justice activist for over a decade. Some of her activism efforts include leading protests against Duke Energy to get them to clean up their coal ash waste (a case in which she and her fellow activists won!).
Randy Wheeless works in media relations for Duke Energy, one of the largest electric and natural gas companies in the US.
