Update: the Salt Lake City School District unanimously adopted this phase out project. The recommendations by McKinstry will get them 30% of the way to their 2040 carbon neutrality goal. Retro-commissioning, heat pumps, 1 MW of PV, LED upgrades, etc.
Students in the Salt Lake City school district want to transition to 100 percent clean electricity by 2030. Who will lead the charge to update our schools to more #sustainable buildings? @MaxJRohr examines the question in this #PHCNews column: bit.ly/3bkQpiS

Fannie Mae dedicated over $88 billion to its green bond program (2012-2020). Did it make buildings greener? Because, it would be kind of a bummer if over 15% of them ended up using more energy, right?
"Green bonds look great on paper. However, if the buildings are not greener after participating in the programs, who wins?" Don't miss the latest from #PHCNews Columnist @MaxJRohr: bit.ly/3BU9GlG

There is significant work to be done to electrify rural areas in the USA. Do rural states want to go electric? What happens if they don’t?
The #electrification of rural America in 1936 is seen as a significant achievement. Do we want to do something similar in 2021? Explore the question in @MaxJRohr's latest #PHCNews column: bit.ly/3mhiBsN

How do we prepare to minimize the damage of inevitable #wildfires? @MaxJRohr examines solutions and challenges in this #PHCNews column: bit.ly/3mnHli1

An internal combustion car requires 18 to 49 pounds of copper. A battery-powered electric vehicle, such as a Tesla, requires 183 pounds and additional wire for charging stations.
Who wants metals the most? In his latest #PHCNews column, @MaxJRohr discusses how electric vehicles and the construction of #solar and wind power plants are driving the demand for copper and lithium: bit.ly/3iXRAc7

Bees can keep the inside of their hive between 91 F and 97 F when the outdoor temperature is between -40 F and 104 F. Not bad for animals who survive on plant dust.
