Kathy Hannun, Geothermal Heat Pumps, California
“Clean energy jobs tend to be hyper local, so investing in clean energy jobs has a lot of benefits for local economies in addition to the climate benefits.”
Cece Luciano, Thermal Batteries, California
“The frustrating reality about climate change is that it often disproportionately affects those that did the least to cause it. We’re already seeing this reality with changes in weather events, sea level, global temperatures, air quality, and more: those from disadvantaged communities and countries tend to see the brunt of these effects. Embracing clean energy allows me to be part of the solution to this problem.”
Sharron Brown, Energy Efficiency, Texas
“Solar and wind here in Texas has offset energy cost and reliability especially during the summer months.”
Sam Cote, Solar, Maine
“I want to do my part in making sure the green transition includes low-income communities like the one I came from. PLUS, who doesn't want a cleaner, greener Earth and some more affordable energy?!”
Gabrielle Finan, Nuclear Energy, Virginia
“Technology with Small Modular Reactors is growing, and these plants have incredible economic potential to stimulate struggling coal communities, all while producing no direct emissions. Clean energy seems like the obvious choice, economically and environmentally.”
Chanel Jenkins, Solar, California
“Clean energy jobs will continue to provide reliable, and affordable power to help families, businesses and communities save money. Fossil fuel jobs will only assist with releasing large numbers of pollutants into the atmosphere, creating pollution levels.”
Tonya Hicks, Electrification, Georgia
“I wish more people knew how easy it is to transition your life! Just small adjustments, how big of an impact those make.”
Meghan Milo, Solar, Virginia
“Clean energy is reducing our carbon footprint, stabilizing energy rates for our schools, and diversifying and modernizing our energy resources. I have seen first-hand how clean energy projects can create new opportunities for workforce development and bring pride to communities. ”
Elizabeth Boone, Electric Vehicles, Michigan
“The shift to electrificaiton is finally gaining some momentum. Detroit and Michigan businesses have the opportunity to reclaim leadership positions through innovations in mobility. This is a pivotal moment for technological advancement, workforce development, jobs creation across the mobility and clean energy ecosystem (the grid, green steel, hydrogen, last-mile solutions, etc). “
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.”
Isabelle Musmanno, Solar, Georgia
“My proudest accomplishment in clean energy was when I had the opportunity to teach and mentor Girl Scouts about the opportunities ahead of them in the growing industry at their annual conference.”
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.”
LaTisha Phillips, Solar, Virginia
“I wish more people understood he importance of engaging with local governments and communities, it's essential to the success of the implementation of the Inflation Reduction Act.”
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.”
Alyssa Grant, Solar, California
“I wish people knew that my decision to work in the clean energy industry was more than a job or a paycheck. It's about the ripple effect that is created for years to come by the work we are doing and the innovative steps we are taking to ensure reliable energy sources that won't damage our planet. It's about inspiring our future generations to take action, ask questions, fuel innovation and know that the renewable energy industry is a thriving career path.”
Noelle Paige, Solar, Virginia
“Congress should invest in clean energy because this is the industry that is growing; we are not on a sustainable trajectory with the potential for growth versus labor. We need people of almost every discipline to join this effort, thus clean energy has the potential to create so many diverse and meaningful jobs. ”
Brittney Boyd, Solar, Virginia
“What you permit, you promote. Investing in fossil fuel jobs is a silent indication that we are not serious about fixing global warming. Congress should be investing in training programs to help people working in fossil fuel plants transition to new clean energy jobs.”
Miranda Cashman, Solar, Massachusetts
“I am proud to be bringing clean energy to low-middle income (LMI) households that are traditionally shut out of the clean energy revolution.”
Mary Jackson, Solar, Florida
“Clean energy promotes energy independence. By reducing our reliance on imported fossil fuels, we can strengthen our energy resilience and decrease vulnerability to price fluctuations.”
Joy Seitz, Solar, Arizona
“I love being a part of a disruptive sector and changing the type of fuel people use to live their life.”
