Doreen Wong, Ocean & Climate Innovation, Hawaii
“Clean energy can offer a lifeline for those who were born and/or raised in environments where their choices are limited. By providing individuals at a younger age with potential job opportunities in clean energy, we can enable them to learn more about the potential of clean energy earlier on in their lives and inform them on how clean energy can provide access to clean air, water, and food systems in their everyday lives.”
Ellie Redding, Electric Vehicles, California
“The transition to clean energy is inevitable, but the sooner we make that transition, the better the outcomes -- for climate change, but also for public health, energy independence, and economic opportunity.”
Aimee Bailey, Electrification, California
“[Clean energy] is the most exciting and multi-disciplinary industry out there!”
Sadie Henderson, Climate Investment, California
“The clean energy industry isn’t just about cars and power plants and batteries – energy production dictates how we grow food, how we distribute food, how we get our water, clean our water, create textiles, and more.”
Sumana Seshadri, Solar, California
“Clean energy is vital to keeping the environment and current wildlife safe. I am an environmentalist first and foremost and the clean energy transition is a key part of preventing the harms from climate change.”
Chris Zargarbashi, Solar, California
“ I have a two-and-a-half-year-old daughter named Nora. To bring her into this world in 2021 was a commitment to hope… I work in clean energy to contribute, in any small capacity, to the slowing of global warming and for all of the hopes that I have for Nora.”
Alison Adams, Solar, Oregon
“I go to work every day knowing I'm part of the solution. When I hear doom and gloom headlines about climate change, I joke that I'm working on it! It gives me peace of mind knowing I'm helping to turn the tide and building a new energy infrastructure that will sustain my children and all of humanity.”
Michael Darling, Solar, California
“Supplying dependable and renewable energy provides sustainability not only for the environment, but for employment. Many of the jobs created allow families to join the industry and jobs to stay in the local community. This allows a clean environment, power and steady employment for communities.”
Stacey McKinney, Solar, Oregon
“Clean energy can provide affordable and reliable energy, resiliency to increasing climate change, good paying jobs, and will help reverse impacts of decades of extractive industries. I want to be a part of the generation that recognizes that the impacts of our actions today will continue to affect future generations. It’s our responsibility to conserve natural resources, protect ecosystems, and to ensure the health and safety for those walking in our footsteps.”
Forest Frizzell, Software, Hawaii
“Clean energy is lower cost, it's creating more jobs, and the general public is asking for it. We need to govern for all the people, not just the ones that are represented by a handful of powerful and connected fossil fuel companies.”
Parker Johnson, Solar, Hawaii
“Our fossil fuel industry is aged, using outdated infrastructure and a profit model that is state mandated and subsidized. This needs to change.”
Jessica Lovering, Nuclear, California
“Investing in clean energy will make the economy more resilient…”
Dej Knuckey, Batteries, California
“Every time a clean energy system gets installed, a community gets cleaner air.”
Stephen MacDonald, Smart Grid, Oregon
“Clean energy sustainably provides a means to a high quality of life.”
Bryan Grauss, Solar, California
“My job has been life changing because I’ve been able to help others.”
