“We can't successfully overhaul our electric system for the future that we need without taking into account environmental justice and without having that expertise in the room.” Heartened to see Massachusetts Energy and Environmental Affairs lead on this ask, hopeful that ISO New England will establish this position!

Years after a wave of union organizing swept through U.S. green groups, workers in influential environmental nonprofits are still feuding with their bosses as they attempt to hammer out contracts. Here's where things stand with green group unions. eenews.net/articles/the-s…
