Working for a healthier & safer environment with renewable energy, energy efficiency and protected forests.

We can do this!

[Andy Olsen ELPC @AndyOELPC]

For climate security, the #USA must act swiftly to protect the remaining mature and old growth trees - our #ClimateForests.

We lose the carbon stored by these forests when they're logged, along with a lot else.

I'm in the video, but please watch anyway!

@ChrisClaytonDTN Could they, though? Does she really think so little of farm work that she thinks any schmoe could walk off the street and do it?

Rural #cleanenergy investments deliver lower energy costs and waste, better margins, and a stronger American economy.

118 groups — from ag to clean energy — are urging Congress to fund rural clean energy. Let’s keep this program growing. https://t.co/DYUmtZ7FUV

@anthonypipa @SecRollins @USDA @POTUS Tony, this is very good work and a contribution to keeping REAP strong into the future. Thank you for your analysis and good charts!

“This isn’t cutting red tape; it’s adding more,” said ELPC's Andy Olsen. @USDA leaving thousands still in limbo, with completed projects unpaid and future plans stalled.https://t.co/6Trqk0qOZD

Going after programs that help farmers and rural businesses cut costs makes no sense.

Federal employees, please speak up about corruption you encounter. You can do so here.

@SamTRicketts @KamalaHarris @Tim_Walz We're at a "now or never moment." This is a crucial time for action to keep the planet livable.

[Andy Olsen ELPC @AndyOELPC]

Sure, it's a wonderful planet that gives us life.

But, is taking care of it so it can keep taking care of us just too much bother?

[A.R. Moxon 🦋 @JuliusGoat]

Unfortunately preventing the total collapse of the only available place in the universe capable of sustaining human life was expensive in terms of our made-up points system, so those who proposed that we should pay the cost anyway were extreme radicals.

[Andy Olsen ELPC @AndyOELPC]

We were given such a great gift in this planet. We must act to counter climate change.

@CNNF002 @usfs_r9 please take climate change seriously. You do not now.

[Andy Olsen ELPC @AndyOELPC]

@ForestClimateWG Define what you mean by "forest health." I keep seeing this term used as an excuse to log forests, but it's seldom actually explained.

You mean a forest with more stumps is a "healthier" forest?

[Andy Olsen ELPC @AndyOELPC]

@EFrost_Wildwood You can see the massive clearcuts on the northern end of the island via Google Maps / Earth.

We got married on Vancouver Island. Nice place, but Canada is fixing that.

Rural #Wisconsin benefitting from federal clean energy investments that cut carbon pollution and build up our rural communities.

We need more of this. Much more. #REAP

Citizen detective @DavidZaber finds, documents, and exposes pollution of a nature preserve in Homewood, Illinois.

Along with official neglect by local and state officials.

@ILEPA, it's time to pay attention!

@usfs_r9 See how the Forest Service plans to clearcut hillsides in the Monongahela NF in this film.

@SEddy444 Send in your comments and then you can watch a good documentary on mature and old-growth protection!

@EFrost_Wildwood Forest Stewardship Council. They have been involved in dodgy certification in Wisconsin state forests too.

It's a very worthwhile video! Take it from someone who appears in it!
