The Zuni Youth Enrichment Project in New Mexico has installed a 27-kilowatt solar array at their youth center with support from Everybody Solar, generating over 48,000 kilowatt hours of electricity annually to offset energy use and reduce carbon emissions. This clean energy project allows the organization to redirect energy savings towards expanding cultural education and wellness initiatives for Zuni youth and families, while also fostering community connections and sustainable futures. Tribal Nations, including ZYEP, are reclaiming control over their energy futures to reduce energy burden, insulate themselves from price volatility, and keep more dollars in the local economy, showcasing local leadership and energy sovereignty in action. Native communities are leading the way toward sustainability by investing in clean energy, strengthening cultural identity, expanding opportunity, and ensuring a livable planet for future generations.

Australia introduces Guarantee of Origin scheme for clean energy exports
The Australian Government has introduced the Guarantee of Origin (GO) scheme, a voluntary framework to support businesses and exporters in tapping into the demand for renewable electricity. The scheme aims to provide emissions accounting and certification of renewable electricity for products, offering transparency for consumers and access to low-emissions markets for Australian producers. The Clean Energy Regulator will administer the scheme, certifying emissions of products like hydrogen and green metals, as well as renewable electricity, providing regulatory certainty for businesses and investors to increase Australia's share in the global clean energy market. Additionally, initiatives such as the Hydrogen HeadStart program, Hydrogen Production Tax Incentive, and Green Aluminium Production Credit are being launched to support the energy transition, showcasing how products are made and their life cycle emissions to compete in a decarbonizing global economy and attract investment in Australia.

We can have growth while fighting climate change
Hannah Ritchie, a data scientist at the University of Oxford, offers encouraging answers to climate questions in her book "Clearing the Air." She believes the world is decarbonizing faster than most realize, with the real bottleneck being belief in progress. Ritchie discusses the dueling climate narratives of denial vs. despair, individual choices vs. systemic change, and shifting politics of clean energy. She highlights objective trends like the collapse in costs of solar, wind, and batteries, and the increasing deployment of clean technologies. Ritchie's views on climate change shifted from doom to optimism as she observed long-term data and technological advancements. The section emphasizes the importance of making choices now that will benefit future generations in terms of climate change, stressing the need to use current resources and tools to create a safer, cleaner, and fairer world for future generations. The author sees the optimistic story of climate solutions as an opportunity that requires action and effort to become a reality.
