Installed 5 downspout planters today at an affordable housing complex clubhouse. Rain in the forecast so we’ll see if they work. 🤞

Caught up on my podcast queue and glad to hear the Princeton Public Schools electric school bus grant award mentioned. Thanks for the shout out @jessejenkins.com that grant was years in the making.

Making the most of what each form for nonprofit offers is key but the facts v. stories and building community consensus info in the podcast is good advice for both
Great podcast episode especially discussion about the roles of 501(c)3 & (c)4s in clean energy action & effective advocacy
Today on Volts: opponents of renewable energy have been organizing to block it at the local level, with disturbing success. Now an org called Greenlight America is organizing supporters, tipping them off to important siting/permitting fights & arming them with good information.

I just made a starter pack for freelance writers & journalists of color, b/c it's rough as AF in news media right now. Please let me know if you want to be added or taken off. And spread the word #freelance #writersofcolor

Alright! This is the first rendition of the much-requested "Diverse Urbanism Voices" starter pack, it currently includes lots of women which is great, but I would appreciate more POC urbanism account suggestions!
