I started this thread w/ link to Fresh Energy's announcement of the iron-air battery storage project.

If you're in Minnesota, I recommend supporting the work of #FreshEnergy--they're a force for good!

Support financially, and/or use their Action Alerts to contact your elected #Minnesota reps.

They have one now to try to protect Minnesota's 100% clean electricity law, which is under attack by the gop.

As I said, it was inspiring.

Inspiring that a completely random sampling of 800 Americans (who coincidentally also are Minnesotans, in St Paul, at a #FreshEnergy fundraising breakfast) were all standing, indicating some level of personal action on #climateAction & #CleanEnergy.

We need to move the needle, and faster would be better. But #ClimateAction is happening

Only did a few live toots from the #FreshEnergy #FreshBreakfast fundraiser today. Good program, good org, good speakers.

Ayana Elizabeth Johnson also touched on this (paraphrased): Leaving a better world for our children is THE top motivator for climate action.

Not the science; not “protect the environment;” not economic reasons.

Leave a better world for our children. Embrace it, because that’s what motivates people to act.
