🌎 with your Net Impact Minneapolis local events and content
Monthly Newsletter - November 2021
We took a short hiatus from sending our newsletter, but we're back and planning to restart sharing our favorite articles, podcasts, events, and news with you. Given the continued pandemic and onset of winter, we will be halting any in person meetings but plan to offer some virtual content in the coming months with a return to in person events once it's safe and comfortable to meet again. See below for what we have for you for November!
If you have ideas for content, articles or events please send them to netimpactminneapolis@gmail.com or just reply to this email.

Sheep + Solar, A Love Story "We all know that a key part of addressing climate change involves getting off fossil fuels. But renewable energies, such as solar energy, are not without costs. One key cost? It uses a lot of land. We take a look at one creative solution to this problem – mixing solar panels with agriculture. And we are not at all sheepish about the role of one very adorable four legged animal."
