Why 100% clean energy goals fail and how to fix them | Jonathan Rogers | TEDxCherryCreek

The current framing of renewable energy goals creates a perverse disincentive for organizations seeking to be â€œpowered byâ€ 100% renewable electricity to NOT deploy rooftop solar or support

The current framing of renewable energy goals creates a perverse disincentive for organizations seeking to be â€œpowered byâ€ 100% renewable electricity to NOT deploy rooftop solar or support community solar projects in their jurisdiction, but instead, buy renewable energy certificates that are 5-years old, not a part of their local electric grid, and/or do not make the electric system any cleaner. A change in mindset, such as that being adopted by the City and County of Denver, will unlock hundred of millions of dollars of annual investments that should be reallocated towards solutions that enable the physical operation of a 100% renewable electric grid and the decarbonization of the systems we are a part of. A more thoughtful investment of these resources will enable co-benefits such as local workforce development, utility bill savings, and more resilient buildings and facilities. Jonathan Rogers is the Renewable Energy Specialist for the City and County of Denver. He is responsible for the city's efforts to transition to a 100% renewable electricity system by 2030. Mr. Rogers leads Denverâ€™s advocacy at the public utilities commission and coordinates Denver's Energy Future Collaboration with Xcel Energy. He works with stakeholders across city agencies to develop and implement renewable-energy focused policies, programs, and projects that advance Denverâ€™s clean energy and community empowerment objectives. Before joining Denver, Mr. Rogers was Program Director of Energy Systems Analysis and Integration at Energetics Incorporated, advising the U.S. Department of Energy, the U.S. National Laboratories, and state and local governments on efforts to achieve an affordable and equitable energy transition. Mr. Rogers holds both a Bachelor of Science degree and a Master of Science degree in Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering from Johns Hopkins University. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx

A chronicle of the lives and economic struggles of two families in Milwaukee, Wisconsin — one

A chronicle of the lives and economic struggles of two families in Milwaukee, Wisconsin â€” one Black and one white â€” across more than three decades, this

A chronicle of the lives and economic struggles of two families in Milwaukee, Wisconsin â€” one Black and one white â€” across more than three decades, this â€œknockout documentaryâ€ (The New York Times) raises unsettling questions about the changing nature of the American economy. This journalism is made possible by viewers like you. Support your local PBS station here: https://www.pbs.org/donateÃ¢â‚¬â€¹/ â€œTwo American Families: 1991-2024â€ documents the saga of two families, the Stanleys and the Neumanns, who have spent the past 34 years battling to keep from sliding into poverty, and who refuse to give up despite upheaval in the U.S. economy. When the team first began documenting the familiesâ€™ lives in 1991, the Neumanns and Stanleys were both struggling to adapt to a new, global economy and the trend towards part-time, lower-wage work. With profound intimacy, the documentary follows the stories of the Stanleys and the Neumanns across six presidential administrations and offers a powerful window into how they and their now-grown children have fared while trying to stay afloat in an economy that has presented challenge after challenge for them. â€œThere are so many people struggling the same way with the cost of everything and not getting enough on your paycheck to cover your monthly expenses,â€ said Terry Neumann, who was a mom of young kids when the documentaryâ€™s producers began filming with her and is now in her early 60s. â€œItâ€™s like we havenâ€™t come very far.â€ â€œI wonâ€™t give up,â€ said Jackie Stanley, who is working as a real estate agent while entering her 70s. â€œTwo American Families: 1991-2024â€ is a FRONTLINE production with Okapi Productions LLC and Public Affairs Television, Inc. in association with Left/Right Docs. The producers and directors are Tom Casciato and Kathleen Hughes. The co-producer is Andrew Fredericks. The senior producers are Frank Koughan and Nina Chaudry. The writer is Kathleen Hughes. The correspondent is Bill Moyers. The editor-in-chief and executive producer of FRONTLINE is Raney Aronson-Rath.
