Climate Change threatens the places we love. Heavier rains and high winds bring more

power outages and dangerous blowdowns. Warmer summers and milder winters

negatively affect our lakes and wildlife habitats. The United States is second in the

world in carbon dioxide emission which is the prime contributor to climate change. I am

concerned with the challenges we are leaving to our children and grandchildren. We

need to work together to plan a comprehensive and integrated transition to clean energy

that will sustain our social, economic, and environmental future. 

As your St. Cloud City Council member, I would work to:

 Boost programs that reduce our carbon footprint while simultaneously creating

new, good-paying jobs.

 Modernize energy production and investment in the transportation grid.

 Incentivize business to modernize their energy use.

 Make St. Cloud a city that continues to develop, implement, and evaluate energy

and environmental innovations.
