"Imagine going to the doctor because you're sick. The doctor gives you medicine that not only makes you feel better—but also puts money in your pocket. That’s what solving climate change is like: you slow global warming and gain health benefits, create jobs, boost energy independence, etc."

I had such a good time at the celebration of 25 years of CERTs with @mncerts.bsky.social yesterday! The whole place was suffused with positivity, hope, empathy, perseverance, and a collaborative spirit. Made some new connections, too!
And "watt" would we do without B3 Benchmarking, Citizens Utility Board of Minnesota, @communitypowermn.bsky.social, Dakota Electric Association, and their support?

See you tonight!
