SolarSMART

@UGA project funded by @ENERGY. We are working to capture your stories about why you adopt #solar (or not) and transform it into data that powers policy!

[SolarSMART @UGASolarSMART]

We are premiering new #solarstory interviews each half hour between 8:30am and noon today on our YouTube channel, but we just couldn’t help ourselves. Check out this great conversation with our friend in Wilkinson County sharing his thoughts on solar. https://t.co/cNLczuKWJb

Our team is definitely enjoying this solar ☂️ at @ASU while we are attending #erss2019.It’s making us wonder what our friends back home in Georgia think about something like this. Could it be a part of our #solarstories in rural communities? #EnergyAndShade

Great work by one of our advisory board members, @emilygrubert on the relationship between values & environmental issues. #motivationsmatter

[Emily Grubert @emilygrubert]

New paper! Values matter for measuring and acting on socioenvironmental impacts. Some of the most important ones are relational--founded in individual and collective relationships. The environmental humanities + social sciences have a lot to say on this. https://t.co/8ECZh9nnfy

Ever wondered what communities in Georgia adopt solar? We did too. As part of our endeavor, we did the analysis to figure out which Georgia counties are #solarwealthy. Check out our article currently under peer review in @Sus_MDPI on @Preprints_org https://t.co/JCX48kAjoJ
