In case you missed it: The most important election you never heard of? Interlochen Public Radio helps us understand the critical role that boards of rural electric co-ops play in shaping our energy future. Cherryland Electric Elections are now underway—be sure to vote!

The most important election you've never heard of It’s election season, but these races you’ve probably never heard of. They could impact your energy bill. Also, state legislatures forgive extra snow days this year.

Safe streets help people fall in love with a town, and when people fall in love with a town, they take care of it and make it great. So let's make our streets safe!

More pictures from the Line 5 peaceful demonstration this morning at the Great Lakes Drinking Water Conference. We cannot risk the economic and environmental sustenance of the Great Lakes for oil profits—Enbridge would make plenty enough money without Line 5. But thousands upon thousands would lose their livelihoods and businesses after a leak.

A lot of our work around clean energy doesn’t always look flashy.

It looks like conversations.
It looks like maps and data.

It looks like sitting down with communities and asking, “What actually works here?”

Because the goal isn’t just more renewable energy—it’s making sure it’s done in a way that benefits the people who live here.

Cleaner, more affordable power. Thoughtfully planned. Community-driven.

That’s the kind of future we’re working toward.

And it’s something we’re building together. Join in and support this work today: https://groundworkcenter.org/donate-today/
