C6 Forest to Farm's mission is to reduce the risk of extreme wildfire in the Pacific Northwest by creating healthier forests. And we need your help! We are working to build a pilot plant that can convert small diameter trees - the fuel for wildfires - into biochar engineered for agricultural uses. This year, we: - Signed two MOUs to secure supplies of small diameter trees that will be the feedstock for our plant - Conducted small-scale production trials with target feedstock for a third-party Lifecycle Analysis - Developed a Lifecycle Analysis based on the proposed business model showing the carbon sequestration benefits of biochar - Started working with the U.S. Department of Energy’s Feedstock Conversion Interface Consortium on biomass processing We’ve been fortunate to secure our first funding commitment from the State of Washington for construction, but these funds generally cannot be used to sustain planning and operations of our organization and plant. That’s why we are asking for your support of the organization as we work to reach our fundraising goal. A great way to give is through the Give NCW campaign, which lasts through December 31st. The Community Foundation of NCW generously covers all fees so every dime goes right to our mission. Give on a "Funday Monday," and you'll be entered to win even more money to give to one of the 80 participating nonprofits. C6's direct donation link: https://lnkd.in/gTgp4ybv

Great podcast Nico, and an important reminder that the "Energy Transition" has radically different outcomes depending where on the planet you happen to live. I am reminded of the promise that solar power represented when I joined the industry in 2005. Green Empowerment is an amazing organization that is delivering remarkable impact globally and I hope you will consider supporting them. More than 750 Million people lack access to electricity! Electricity is a cornerstone for a healthy life and economic opportunity. Worldwide, many people living in “energy poverty” reside in remote locations, far from national energy grids that themselves rely on polluting, nonrenewable sources of energy. Green Empowerment works with rural and indigenous populations to build renewable energy solutions that elevate the health and wellbeing of both people and planet. Together with regional/local partners they build mini-grids that deliver quality, consistent energy to homes, schools, and health clinics. These systems provide sufficient power for large appliances like washing machines, power tools, and food mills, providing a real springboard for economic opportunity.
"𝘚𝘦𝘳𝘷𝘪𝘤𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘴 𝘪𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘱𝘢𝘺 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘳𝘰𝘰𝘮 𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘰𝘯 𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘩." - Mohammed Ali 🎤 I am delighted to share the stage on today's episode of SunCast Podcast with Andrea Johnson , Executive Director at Green Empowerment, and bring back Giving Tuesday, the day after Thanksgiving where we converse with a non-profit organization focused on contributing to the energy transition. Andrea gives us the enlightening breakdown of how Green Empowerment is bringing clean water and renewable energy to empower rural communities through the energy transition. Link to the episode in the comments below! If you'd like to donate to Green Empowerment's cause, the link to donate will be in the comments as well 👇 Thanks for listening Solar Warriors, and let's continue to be thankful for our planet by taking care of the people around us 🌎 Let me know in the comments what YOU are thankful for! #solar #energy #sustainability

NABCEP-Certified Copywriter and Marketer | Published in Solar Power World, PV Tech, and Solar Today | Quoted as a Solar Industry Source in USA Today and Business Insider | Contributing Marketing Writer @beehiiv
Exact Solar gives back. We're the best possible solar company to have in your backyard. Where other companies use high pressure sales tactics and spam homeowners with door-to-door sales, we focus on giving homeowners the BEST information and letting them decide for themselves. Where other companies do sub-par work, we focus on building quality systems that last (and we've repaired a lot of shotty work by companies that don't). Where other companies only sell solar systems and sub-contract out the actual work, we're vertically integrated. You won't have someone from the Philippines designing your system with satellite imagery from thousands of miles away. The people who design your solar system are the same ones who build your solar system. Period. We're focused on not only building the best solar systems, but also on being the best source of solar information from an installer on the Internet. Transparency, accountability, and high-quality work. That's why we've been around for 19 years when so many other companies have failed. Thanks to Solar Energy Industries Association, National Renewable Energy Laboratory, and Enphase Energy for all of the high-quality information y'all are putting out FOR FREE. You're the reason I can write high-quality articles that help homeowners avoid getting scammed.
Exact Solar's system donation has been a "gift that keeps on giving" for the United Christian Church of Levittown, empowering them to make a lasting impact in their community. In our latest blog post, we take a deep dive into their system and solar journey, as well as a recap of Congressman Fitzpatrick's recent visit to UCC to tour their system as part of an ongoing effort by Environment America. Read it here 👉 https://loom.ly/9mUmnCA

LONGi has made a significant contribution to the Foping base by donating 5.8kW PV systems. These systems will play a crucial role in providing green power supply and facilitating energy-saving experiments at the base. The donation of these PV systems showcases LONGi's commitment to promoting sustainable development and renewable energy solutions. By harnessing the power of sunlight, these systems will generate clean electricity that can be utilized for various purposes within the Foping base. Furthermore, LONGi has taken an active role in supporting the cause of giant panda protection. We have adopted a panda named HiMO for life. This adoption signifies LONGi's dedication towards preserving endangered species and protecting biodiversity. https://lnkd.in/g9aMkQqx

This is what happens when you leave me to organise my own work travel. I'm going over to HFW's Paris office in early June to talk to the Partners about comms and profile raising, and while looking at transport options for the trip, a thought popped into my head: "I could just cycle there..." Those who know me even a little bit will know that once I've got an idea in my head about a ridiculous cycling challenge, I may as well resign myself to the fact that I'm doing it. But this has been particularly impulsive, even for me. I only had the idea last week, and now everything is booked and finalised, and I set off in less than a month, leaving me virtually no time to train. (Better hope those commuting miles pay off...) The premise is simple: travel from HFW's London to Paris office in a single ride. In practice, this means 300km on the bike, across two countries, solo and unsupported. As an added challenge, I'm aiming to finish within 24 hours - including the overnight ferry crossing. In case that wasn't quite enough time in the saddle, I have to cycle from my home to the London office before I even start the challenge (adding 20km), and, me being me, I've also decided to cycle the UK section of the return journey - another 100km. I am a very keen cyclist, but this ride will be a serious test for me - physically and mentally. I'm undertaking this highly questionable endeavour to raise funds for HFW charity partner Renewable World, which does fantastic work in enabling communities in Africa and Asia to escape energy poverty by installing community-owned solar power systems. I did a two-day ride from Durham to Edinburgh a few years ago for Renewable World, and I'm really proud to be working with them again on this. If you would like to support their vital work (and to give me a much-needed morale boost), you can donate here: https://lnkd.in/eAM9S4tG Any donations - no matter how small - really would be much appreciated. #Renewables #RenewableEnergy #CleanEnergy #GreenEnergy #WindPower #SolarPower
This June, our Head of Communications Chris Johnson will be cycling between HFW's London and Paris offices to raise money for Renewable World. He will be riding solo and entirely unsupported, and will be attempting to complete the 300km route within 24 hours - including the overnight ferry crossing. If you would like to donate, you can do so here: https://lnkd.in/es6AWnSY HFW has been working with Renewable World for the past eight years, and we are proud to continue to support its important work in tackling poverty in Africa and Asia by providing communities with access to clean energy. #Renewables #RenewableEnergy #RenewablePower #CleanEnergy #GreenEnergy #SolarPower
