1. SDG&E has money for you! Yes, it’s true! The California Public Utilities Commission requires utilities that emit greenhouse gases to purchase carbon pollution permits. Money from the sale is then shared with customers. According to the utility, no action is required to receive the credits. Credits will show first on April bills, and they will show again in August and September. To learn more: Click into Parenthesis, then click the link. (NBC San Diego)
