Recently my team worked with the Colorado CCUS task force, which has drafted a report on carbon capture in CO and is looking for public input. Read my blog post for more info, and where task force members share perspectives on CO & #carbonneutrality. https://t.co/2hdAGz9Opq

Great to see @LSP members share their stories and concerns with @SenatorGoggin. Hoping to see progress on these issues this legislative session.

[Emma Thomley @Emma_Thomley]

There is still time to join the in-district meeting with @SenatorGoggin! I enjoyed speaking with MN SD 21 members while phone banking and am excited to lead the meeting tonight #soilhealth #beginningfarmers #farmtoschool

Emma shared, "when we support healthy soil, we cultivate vibrant communities and economies. We cultivate thriving and resilient land that sequesters carbon while fostering healthy ecosystems with clean water and a sustainable climate for microorganisms, wildlife, and people."

Had a great time speaking at @LSPnow’s virtual Family Farm Breakfast today! It was incredible to see over 100 people come out to support healthy soil and agricultural communities across MN! #healthysoils #LSPBreakfast21 #ResilientCommunities

Heard from LSP member Emma Thomley on her work with our soil health campaign and how she and other LSP members are working to share the importance of #soilhealthyfarming and building up our soils for all of us- rural, urban, or suburban we all depend on healthy soils

Channeling my disappointment after seeing how much trash I found within a one-block radius by sharing this WikiHow link. Every piece counts! You've got this! https://t.co/IQIoS4wG0n.

Great neighborhood walk with @abz_hirsh today to kick off our weekly spring trash walks. We enjoyed the sun. We wore gloves. We picked up trash! It's easy (and you can do it, too).

Great article from S Li, B Learn, & J Xing & comments from Chris Severon further confirming that more should be done to incentivize EV purchases. Once EV vehicles are an affordable and beneficial option for everyone (hopefully) market saturation will follow rapidly.

[Christopher Severen @ChrisSeveren]

Electric vehicles are great, but they are not a panacea for auto-dependence wrt climate change. Two recent papers:

@fburlig, J Bushnell, @rapsonenergy, & C Wolfram show the EV owners drive half as much others drivers using dope plug-level data from CA https://t.co/BhlQugInCO

R*pe is r*pe. The Minnesota legislature needs to listen to the justices’ plea to enact legislation protecting victim’s from this loophole. Having a drink ≠ consent to be r*ped.

[NPR @NPR]

The Minnesota Supreme Court has overturned a rape conviction, ruling that the state’s legal definition of “mentally incapacitated” didn't apply if a victim consumed drugs or alcohol voluntarily. It urged the legislature to fix the law. @MPRnews https://t.co/ABTMVaagCH
