Watch the video and then take action to save the clean energy tax credits from being cut out of the Bill that shall not be named!
The House passed a budget reconciliation bill that would increase our energy bills & limit America to old, inefficient energy. We can still prevent this budget from doing irreparable harm to our communities as the Senate deliberates. Take action now: ruralpower.us/take-action

Energy that's more reliable, sustainable, and cheaper?! This seems like a no-brainer to me. Every community, whether serviced by an electric co-op, municipally owned utility, or investor-owned utility, should become part of a Virtual Power Plant.
⚡Virtual Power Plants create a more resilient, dependable, and affordable energy network for rural America. 📺 Check out our new video on VPPs with @storyofstuff! #RuralPower youtube.com/watch?v=pIhUx6Dt…

Remember when bombing hospitals was a big deal? After destroying Gaza’s healthcare system, now Israel is attacking hospitals and killing medics in LEBANON where there’s no hostages to “rescue.” This is a war crime, funded by US-tax dollars, and US officials couldn’t care less.

The environmental, social, and economic polycrisis is ending the world as we know it. But that’s not necessarily a bad thing. In the Regeneration Hand Book, Don Hall illustrates how the great transition could be a bane or it could be a boon…it’s up to all of us to shape it!
