What you missed
August 29th
Dan Worth from Groundwork Center shared on the topic of Clean Energy. He connected us to a worldwide topic in a very local way by sharing a number of local projects completed or underway in our region. But, more than that, he spoke to how this is an issue that affects us all and he hopes to reframe the conversation from a highly politicized discussion to one of living in community and caring for our neighbors. There have been incredible strides in our region and Dan likened the Grand Traverse region to some larger metropolitan areas in our state that are having the same conversation about whether or not to take advantage of cheaper international solar options or find a premium local option that benefits the local economy and meets the energy needs. In the end, Dan encouraged us to think about solar energy as an economic driver in our region as well as a clean energy solution.
