“We educate one person and it's educating a whole family, educating a whole community," says Bridget Guiza, with White Earth Tribal & Community College.
Huge thanks to @cleanenergymn for capturing the heart of our work with WETCC / @WhiteEarthTribe & @mnpower | #WeNeedCleanMN
On this #IndigenousPeoplesDay (and everyday) we're honored to be part of solar projects like this array at AICHO in Duluth, working with partners to build clean, solar power & preserve places and resources for future generations. vimeo.com/285363817
We couldn't agree more: "Rural places were some of the last to benefit from the monumental changes of the 20th century and must be included in the transition to an inclusive 21st century clean energy economy."

Yes! Let's get to it. We can simultaneously build a clean energy economy and move away from carbon-based energy. We're ready to work in Central and Northern MN to bring more solar power to our communities.

Sign and stand for clean energy standards in MN! Did you know MN is one of the fastest warming states in the USA? Did you know MN is NOT on track to meet its goal to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 80% by 2050? We need to act now!

#NationalWalkingDay! What a great day to go outside, explore, & say hello to some goats. Rachel Juritsch, our program development specialist, enjoyed a nice walk to the goat pen. It is great to see our RREAL team practicing social distancing & still enjoying nature.
