http://lccerncernedcitizens.org/solar-co-op
Started with fracking concerns. School board decided not to do seismic testing. That is our potential to mobilize citizens…another example Richard Downs…Solar panels for YES club.
First solar installation for Newark downtown. Jeremy is in charge of sustainability at Denison.
Licking County has one of the largest injection wells in the state on Irvingwick?
PA sends their waste to us. Who is cleaning up after bankruptcy of fracking companies? Freeze on green energy tax reduction? in Ohio? They are just not promoting green energy companies, but we can still do it. Our church divesting from fossil fuels is exemplary.
